library

The City of Yarra council is insistent on building a library near North Fitzroy’s picturesque Edinburgh Gardens.

A year after the Greens voted down a controversial council proposal to build a library within the grounds of the gardens, The Melbourne Times is reporting council is formalising a plan to compulsorily acquire a site at 182 – 196 St Georges Road, on the south-west corner of Best Street.

The proposed library site was formerly a petrol station.
