DESKTOP 2579 - DOCKLANDS

Docklands (also known as Melbourne Docklands to differentiate it from London Docklands) is an inner city suburb in Melbourne, Australia occupying an area extending up to 2 km west of and adjacent to Melbourne's Central Business District (CBD). It is a primarily waterfront area centred around the banks of the Yarra River.

Contemporary Docklands is the product of an ongoing urban renewal project to extend the area of the CBD (excluding Southbank and St Kilda Road) by over a third when it was  completed around 2015. It is now home to several of Melbourne's modern landmarks including Marvel Stadium, Southern Cross Station and The Southern Star.
