24.01.2022 Classic Oslo Davis from last week.

24.01.2022 Malcolm Young tribute on AC/DC Lane.

23.01.2022 Melbourne is a 24 hour rock and roll city so it comes as no surprise that there is now a musicians vending machine. Stuck for a lead, plectrum, or drum sticks? No problems! The machine out the front of Clingan Guitar Tone is there to save the day and is accessible all hours.

22.01.2022 A raft of small independent businesses are under threat from non-necessary development as part of the new Metro CBD South station work. Today is the last day to voice your concerns online regarding the development. Campbell Arcade is a heritage site and a vital space for creative businesses within the city. Please take a moment to watch this small video and follow the link to have your voice heard.

21.01.2022 The five new Metro train station names are being revealed today. Here is the first. What do you think?

21.01.2022 The Melbourne International Arts Festival begins tonight at Fed Square

21.01.2022 Melbourne from 10,000 ft, Robert Hoddle did a fine job indeed.

20.01.2022 Take a rather chilled out ride on Melbourne's much loved City Circle Tram. The #35 continued to run its route during the COVID19 lock-down, patiently awaiting our return. Sit back with a cuppa and enjoy an almost passenger free journey around Melbourne.

18.01.2022 Avoid the city shopping rush. Purchase a walking tour gift voucher without leaving home. The gift of knowledge and experience delivered straight to your email. http://www.melbournebyfoot.com/gift

18.01.2022 Great to see this @ Federation Square

17.01.2022 A fascinating article on how Australia nearly lost 2 million historically significant images and their subsequent rescue; https://news.artnet.com//australian-newspaper-photo-archiv

16.01.2022 It has been great to be out and about in the winter sun this week.

15.01.2022 Take a rather chilled out ride on Melbournes much loved City Circle Tram. The #35 continued to run its route during the COVID19 lock-down, patiently awaiting our return. Sit back with a cuppa and enjoy an almost passenger free journey around Melbourne.

15.01.2022 A great little documentary about the planning and construction of the National Gallery of Victoria - a remarkable building today, quite astounding 50 years ago.

15.01.2022 Looking West from the top of Bourke Street, corner of Spring, 1959

14.01.2022 On this day, 3 March in 1837, a new township was surveyed and named as Melbourne , in honour of Lord Melbourne. We are rather proud of how it turned out.

14.01.2022 Hi everyone, we are seeing the first glimmers of the lifting of COVID19 restrictions in Melbourne, we are hopeful things will continue to move smoothly and will soon be able to start sharing Melbourne with visitors. Many of our institutions are offering unique behind the scenes views of whats been happening during the lockdown. Here we get a bit of a guided tour through the National Gallery of Victoria. I cant wait to get back into our amazing galleries, large and small. regards, Chris, Dave & Erica - Melbourne By Foot

13.01.2022 A great opportunity to mingle with the creators and artists residing with The Nicholas Building- You may even bump into us.

12.01.2022 It was only a matter of time before someone added some personal touch to these drab bollards. More of this! http://www.abc.net.au//southern-cross-bollard-cove/8661234

12.01.2022 And hopefully, we can see you one day soon. Melbourne By Foot will be making changes to the way we share the city with guests. All tours will now be private, single party experiences. Our tours remain affordable and by running private tours exclusively we can give your group a unique experience catered to your interests and itinerary.... You can read more about these changes over on the old MelbsByFoot website - https://www.melbournebyfoot.com/blog/a-post-covid19-return/ Stay safe, until then.

11.01.2022 A 1960s photo of Flinders St station by Maggie Diaz Collection. Aside from the neon, not a whole lot has changed from this view.

10.01.2022 Amazing screen print by Mark Lording depicted historical hero William Buckley.

10.01.2022 Great to see City of Melbourne improving online resources cataloging their art and heritage collection.

10.01.2022 Just when you thought the National Gallery of Victoria water wall couldnt get any better.

10.01.2022 Fantastic picture of Flinders St from the 1960s by budding photographer Basil Hunter.

09.01.2022 Why is Flinders Lane not called Little Flinders St? http://www.abc.net.au//why-is-flinders-lane-not-l/9712006

09.01.2022 Some classic Melburnian responses to being confronted with potential art. Bonus points for recognising the reason the comment "its not even yellow" got us rolling on the floor in the Melbo By Foot office.

09.01.2022 Nice photo of our cultural walking tour starting point, from the 1960s. You can see the trench which for decades effectively cut off Melbourne from the Yarra, and the Gas and Fuel towers along Flinders Street, all demolished to build Federation Square. Fed Square isnt perfect, but it played a major part in transforming Melbourne.

06.01.2022 Take a look around 1916 Melbourne View of the corner of Elizabeth and Collins Streets

05.01.2022 Great news. https://www.theage.com.au//heritage-authority-refuses-fed-

05.01.2022 Interesting article about the economics of bike share systems.

05.01.2022 The recently reopened& revamped State Library of Victoria nails itself to the top of the list as a must-see destination for Melbourne visitors and residents alike.

03.01.2022 Really excited that Arboria is returning to Melbourne next month. This time it will be located at Federation Square.

03.01.2022 A familiar view for our Cultural Walk guests showing how the city has grown around some of its major landmarks. Looking west towards the Princes Bridge - Both blended photos taken from the normal stop for our Settlement of Melbourne talk at the start of each tour.

03.01.2022 An unusual view of a building we discuss on our Cultural Walk, city living has certainly evolved.

01.01.2022 A human skill tester at the Docklands right now.
