Statement of Significance

The Cunningham Street Urban Conservation Area has significance as a coherent nineteenth century workers' housing area, with early and later terraces, and other forms of modest housing. It represents an important aspect of Prahran's development, of increased significance due to the loss of other areas once also containing typical nineteenth century housing.
