Treasury Gardens
City of Melbourne, Australia · built 1867
The Treasury Gardens is a 5.8-hectare (14-acre) urban park located on the south-eastern side of the Melbourne central business district, in East Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. The gardens are bounded by Wellington Parade, Spring Street, Treasury Place, and by the Fitzroy Gardens across Lansdowne street to the west. The Treasury Gardens form part of a network of city gardens including the Fitzroy, Carlton, and Flagstaff gardens and the Kings Domain. The Gardens were added to the Victorian Heritage Register in 2003 for their historical, archaeological, social, "aesthetic and scientific (horticultural) importance for its outstanding nineteenth century design, path layout and planting". Together with Fitzroy Gardens, the Treasury Gardens are "… the finest examples of … garden designs in Victoria." The Gardens were also added to a non-statutory heritage list by the Victorian branch of the National Trust; and were listed on the now defunct Register of the National Estate in 1980.
