General notes:
Image held by North Melbourne Library. Canning Place, off Canning Street. All the houses face backyards. The newest houses, those near the end have no windows in front. Most of them have their own little gardens. The woman living in the first house with the verandah was so desperately poor that she resolved to save the maternity bonus, and so, with her last baby had neither anaesthetic nor doctor. Canning Place was lost during the Public Housing development of the area. Copyright: Housing Commission of Victoria. Barnett Collection.
