1874 Lygon Street, Carlton

MI_1338

An amazing photo of Lygon Street in 1874, looking south across Palmerston Street. A little further on the right we see Elgin House (still there), situated on the south west corner of Lygon and Elgin Streets. To the extreme right of the photo is St Jude's Anglican Church, which still exists today.
