Photo scanned from the 1951 publication "The Story of the Century 1851-1951 - published by the Victorian Government to celebrate 100 years of Government".
The aerial photograph looks southeast from Parkville and North Melbourne towards central Melbourne around 1950. The large foreground complex is the Royal Melbourne Hospital, opened at this site in 1944, while Flemington Road and Elizabeth Street lead towards the city. Queen Victoria Market’s long sheds are visible on the right, surrounded by low-rise factories, terrace houses and the compact pre-1960s Melbourne skyline.
