Formerly known as Goldie Alley, the name was changed post-1915. In 1860, Goldie Place was the site of James Liddy's coach building business. It was also home to several buildings dating to 1888, which are now listed on the Victorian Heritage Inventory. These buildings were predominantly used for commercial purposes, whilst a retail and wholesale shop was located at number 14-16.ALEXANDRA GERNERREFERENCES'4-10 Goldie Place, (H7822-1252, H7822-1255, H7822-1253, H7822-1254)', in Victorian Heritage Register On-Line, 2000, http://www.doi.vic.gov.au/doi/hvolr.nsf..Melbourne Planning Scheme Amendment C271Guildford and Hardware Laneways Heritage Study14-20 Goldie PlaceGuildford & Hardware Laneways PrecinctContributory (both buildings)The original D grading translates to contributory in this instance.Although the setting of the subject buildings is altered to the west, the buildings are an Edwardian and interwar factory/warehouse pair which demonstrate the values of the broader laneways precinct. The contributory and significant buildings to the south and east of the subject site also demonstrate these values.As noted in citation: the form of Goldie Place at its north end (outside the precinct boundary) has been substantially altered as part of recent works at no 200 Queen Street. However, within the precinct block, a small group of buildings survive, as reflective of the early arrangement. These comprise a pair of Victorian warehouses at nos 4-6 and 8 Goldie Place and twentieth century factories and warehouses at nos 10-20 which combine to form an intact remnant of the interwar appearance of the lane.Lovell Chen maintains the assessment of the buildings as being contributory, and the proposed heritage overlay control is appropriate..CITY OF MELBOURNE BUILDING PERMIT APPLICATIONShttps://www.ancestry.com.au/imageviewer/collections/60672/images/44777_349584-00957No entry.DIRECTORIES OF VICTORIA, MELBOURNE-SANDS AND KENNY, SANDS & MCDOUGALL1915Off 400 Lit Bourke atGuthridge & Co, horse collar rnkrs, workshopArmstrong , James, electrotyperGinger , Harry , contractorTelford Bros, saddlers (factor.
