Melbourne's first public square, an initiative of the Melbourne City Council was the City Square which dates back to 1968 was considered by many to be a planning failure. Its redevelopment in the 1990s failed to address serious flaws in its design as a public space and it was during this decade that the first plans for a new square were hatched by the Victorian state government.
First plans
The site selected was immediately south of the Hoddle Grid and included the Princes Gate Towers of the former Gas and Fuel Corporation, Jolimont Yard and the Princes Bridge railway station (which was itself the former site of a 19th-century morgue). The government sought to remove what were considered to be two of Melbourne's great eyesores, demolishing the 1960s Gas and Fuel Corporation buildings which obstructed a vista of heritage buildings along Flinders Street including St Paul's Cathedral.

What is Federation Square?
It's increasingly difficult to imagine Melbourne without Federation Square.
With more than 2,400 events each year, it's home to major cultural attractions, world-class experiences and an exceptional array of restaurants, bars and specialty stores. This modern piazza has become the heart and soul of Melbourne.
Since opening in 2002, Fed Square has seen more than 100 million visits and has recently been named the 6th Best Public Square in the World, in a list of 10 international icons including Naghsh-e Jahaan Square in Iran and Red Square (Krasnaya ploshchad) in Moscow, Russia.
