Frederick Street

The Frederick Street Precinct, comprising houses at 1-27 and 2-68 Frederick Street, the former bluestone grain store at 221-225 Albion Street (formerly fronting Tinning Street), 227-277 and 222-276 Albion Street, 1-3 and 2-4 Bryant Street, 1-35 and 8 Crook Street, 3 & 5 La Rose Street, 1A-41 and 2-36 Mackenzie Street, 1-33 and 2-42 Macfarland Street, 1-17 and 2-18 Orient Grove and 4 Warne Street.

The Frederick Street Precinct is of local historical and architectural significance to the City of Merri-bek.

The Frederick Street Precinct is of local historical and architectural significance for its capacity to demonstrate features of subdivision activity in two periods: the 1858 proposal for the village of Wrigglesworth which resulted in the creation of Frederick Street but was otherwise unsuccessful; and Queens Park Estate subdivision in 1887 which was virtually fully developed by 1906. 

The precinct contains a mix of modest Victorian, Edwardian and Inter-War housing, and contains a number of interesting buildings which add to its architectural significance, including the Victorian brick cottages in Frederick Street and the two-storey Inter-War maisonettes in Macfarland Street and the large former bluestone store building on the train line backing onto Albion Street.
