From Water Engineers to Financial Engineering
This article analyzes the provision of urban water in Australia’s three east coast capital cities—Sydney, Brisbane, and Melbourne—from the big dams of the post–World War II years to recently completed desalination plants. We trace how major statutory authorities and their engineers built up both their organizations and their water storage and distribution assets in the Fordist 1950s and 1960s, before these bodies were restructured under the guise…
A dream for Australian architecture
This exhibition at Heide, the former home of patrons John and Sunday Reed which is now a museum devoted to modern art, is one of a series of public events this year to mark the centenary of the bir
Intimate Oral Histories
This article examines the experiences of individuals in romantic relationships that crossed ethnic, religious or racial lines in post-World War II Australia. Using interviews from the Australian Generations Oral History Project, supplemented by archival and newspaper material, this article examines how broader changes in immigration and the cultural make-up of Australia in the second half of the twentieth century impacted individual Australians, …
A Nation of Immigrants or a Nation of Immigrant Cities? The Urban Context of Australian Multiculturalism, 1947–2011
The article documents the urban dimension of Australia's immigration experience that, since the 1940s, has seen the country become one of the world's most multicultural societies. The article argues that the greatest impact of immigration has been in the major cities, especially Sydney and Melbourne, which in recent decades have emerged as internationally‐significant immigrant hubs that, like similar immigrant‐receiving destinations across the gl…
In Melbourne tonight
In recent decades the ‘music city’ has emerged as an important series (and exchanges) of representations, capital, labour, sounds and commodities. City heritage and histories—particular narratives of music development, genres, venues and personnel—continue to inform contemporary city branding, tourism and industrial strategies. This article explores how both the practices and discourses of the ‘music city’ circulate in terms of specific histories…

A Little Bit of Europe in Australia
In common with most Australian cities, Melbourne experienced a rapid build-up in flat and apartment numbers in the second third of the Twentieth Century. This article traces the involvement of immigrant communities, especially the Jewish community, in this process as architects, developers and residents of these new flats. It goes on to argue that along with other immigrant communities in this period, the Jewish community was part of a broader ec…
A Victorian community overseas’ transformed
One of the world's great Victorian-era suburban metropolises, Melbourne, Australia, was transformed by mass immigration and the redevelopment of some of its older suburbs with low-rise flats and apartments in the post-war years. Drawing on a range of sources, including census material, municipal rate and valuation books, immigration and company records, as well as building industry publications, this article charts demographic and morphological c…

Becoming Post-industrial
This article provides a historical approach to the study of deindustrialisation and re-use of former industrial spaces in Melbourne's inner city Fitzroy. Essentially a biography of the formerly industrial, now residential, educational and 'creative' northern side of Victoria Street, it is argued that chronology must be included alongside the spatial in analyses of urban change. It is asserted that there is a need for more historically informed st…
From Manufacturing Zone to Lifestyle Precinct
Deindustrialisation, decline in manufacturing employment, gentrification, and the regeneration of inner urban areas characterized the experiences of many Western cities during the late twentieth century. In North America and Europe, economic and urban historians have studied these profound changes, but not so in Australia. This paper charts the decline of manufacturing in Melbourne's inner suburbs in the 1970s and 1980s and its replacement by, fi…
Urban History and the Future of Australian Cities
Urban growth is a major theme in economic development and a policy imperative for developed countries that seek to create sustainable cities. We argue that the past weighs heavily on the ability of societies to sustainably manage urban environments. The policy implications of urban history are revealed in comparisons of cities across times and between places. The special issue presents some of the best recent work on the economic and social histo…
Full Board and Lodging
This article supports a number of recent calls for more research into Australian housing experiences, but argues that these enquiries should go beyond histories of traditional housing to include all types of dwellings and all tenure types. Based partly on a case study of a number of hostels for immigrant male workers established in Melbourne in the early postwar years, the article seeks to broaden our understanding of the accommodation options av…
All found” they used to call it’
This paper investigates genteel, or middle- and upper-class boarding houses in Melbourne in the first decades of the twentieth century. It argues that urban historians have neglected boarding as a facet of Australian city life, preferring instead to use a limited range of statistical sources to focus on the importance of nuclear families, suburbia and home ownership as defining features of the Australian city. Utilizing archival, literary and ora…
