[4K] Treadmill Walk | Melbourne Australia | Little Collins St - walking west to east, winter morning

Little Collins St - Walking west to east.

Melbourne city is located in a 1 by 0.5 mile grid of streets known as the Hoddle grid that forms the Melbourne central business district. This area is bounded by Flinders Street, Spring Street, La Trobe Street and Spencer Street. Geographically, this grid is not aligned to the Melbourne suburban grid and is hence an easily recognisable, defined region. It was named after its surveyor Robert Hoddle who marked out the area in 1837. This work from 150 years ago has contributed to Melbourne being awarded the worlds most livable city for seven years running.

This video series is filmed in single shot, first person views of each street within the grid, providing a snap shot of life in this busy centre of Melbourne's commercial, retail and civic life.

Its a mid winter morning, so come along for a walk along Little Collins St. This street runs parallel to and to the north of Collins Street and as a narrow one way lane takes on the name of the wider main street. There are many boutique shops, bars and hotels in lanes at the 'Paris End' and offices towards the Docklands end. Howey Place, Royal Arcade and The Causeway are notable arcades. Of interest, this was also filmed as the city was starting to come out of the Covid pandemic hibernation so it will be noted that the streets are still very quiet when compared to a normal Thursday morning in times past.

The purpose of the video is to show the city as a guide for travellers and to add interest to a treadmill workout. If you find yourself shown in the video and prefer not to be, please let me know via the contact details below and I shall remove immediately.
