Statement of Significance
Historically, Lygon and Elgin Street have, for the most part, been dominated by retail and to a lesser extent, residential activity. The visual character of the historic area is a clear expression of a 19th century commercial streetscape. The simple elegance of Lygon Street with its aura of spaciousness, the open space of Argyle Square with its stand of mature elm trees and the many small owner/proprietor shops offers personalised shopping that is a legacy of the last century. But Carlton's character does not stem solely from its built form.
