Statement of Significance
Precinct statement of significance:
The precinct is of historical significance as one of the more recognisable examples of the planned urban development that characterise much of early Sunshine's suburban expansion during the period under McKay's influence in the early 20th century. It is also significant for its association with the State Bank of Victoria as one of a number of interwar housing schemes. While much smaller than the Garden City Estate, there are interesting parallels with it in relation to garden city design principles and the experimental building methods such as the use of off-form and prefabricated concrete.
