Changing Melbourne Suburbia // Muse Melbourne

What used to be mainly 1960s-1990s commercial offices along St Kilda Road are now being demolished at a dramatic rate for residential tower blocks. I documented the commercial tower block that once stood here and now photographing the new kid on the block. It's wonderful to have a collection of photographs of what once was, what's being demolished and what is rising. The rate is so rapid that what once was is quickly forgotten to time. The photograph remains as a witness to this relentless change.
