The buildings bounded by Elizabeth Street, Victoria, Queen and Therry streets are the oldest part of the market and like all heritage buildings of this age, deterioration has occurred over time with the fabric weakening and services not functioning as effectively.
Through the Precinct Renewal program, we’re preserving and celebrating the market’s long history and cultural heritage significance, and retaining the physical fabric is a key component.
The project will seek to not only enhance the appearance and amenity of the Melbourne landmarks, but ensure the buildings ongoing conservation, viability, security and sustainability.
