Firstly, I'm a father of 4 kids in the 'burbs... so I am not the "demographic" their retailers/venues are targeting, really. It goes off at nite apparently. To me it looks like a strange place: wall-to-wall residential apartment complexes that are deserted during the day, frenetic/busy/humming at night on the piazza thingy. Daytime there are business around there -- sort of -- but yeah, strange. For sure I would never have invested in property down there... a massive glut and it's so "fake". @Aaron - It’s a bit of a mystery to me.

Since everyone reading this thread will likely be a Melbournian, perhaps you can fill me in on something? Why is the Docklands (The current destination at my virtual tour blog) virtually deserted? I spent a few days there in November shooting virtual tours etc, and the place was a ghost town. And yet it's a beautiful place, so what gives? I have a few 'southern' friends, and they talk about things like the 'vibe' of a place. Whenever a place was pointed out with 'vibe' what I usually saw was dirty, grimey, old and very unappealing. So being all new and shiny I guess the docklands doesn't have the 'vibe'? Thanks, Aaron Spence. OT & ProBlogger Cross Post.
