How is it 2am already? :
District Docklands is a ghost town now but it’ll be completely doomed when Costco moves. It should have been a DFO

Too far from the city. No trams. No where to park

It needs vibrant laneways with hidden cafes and small bars and way way way more greenery. It doesn’t feel like Melbourne.

I looooove that area, I come and spend money there pretty often 🥰 and it feels that all that built there belongs to me only 😂

It needs greenery, restaurants, evening lights, colour and some style, it's too plain

Why do we let developers have any input into planning? Their interests are entirely hostile to society.

There’s no shade. If you work in there area and take a lunch break, your only real option is to sit in direct sun by the stagnant water.

I work here now and my god it takes forever to get into work and I live in inner Melbourne. It’s getting busier now though and more shops are opening up, but Costco going is a huge mistake.

my nephew drowned there because there was no fence at the pier. I hope they can do something about that so no one falls in the future.

It’s dominated by residential and restrictions who seem to complain of there is loud music. Bangaroo in darling harbour has been built well and a place where people want to go. Docklands is lame

I do ice skating classes in Docklands and the parking fees are ridiculous. No wonder there’s never anyone shopping there

The fact there is limited tram and roads in and out.. and it feels soulless too.
