“The Re:imagine the Junction competition will aim to re-monumentalise St Kilda Junction, not with a return to the past, but with the imposition of an ambitious future. A future fabric that not only meets 21st Century needs but also heals previous injuries inflicted on Melbourne’s inner-urban inheritance.”
