Statement of Significance

The apartments at No. 466 Hawthorn Road, Caulfield South, were built in 1936 for Miss Florence Gerstman. They are aesthetically significant.

They are aesthetically significant (Criterion E) as uncommon examples of residential buildings undertaken in a manner directly influenced by the work of Frank Lloyd Wright, comparing in Glen Eira only with the house at No. 45 Balaclava Road but demonstrating that the influence of his work was still being felt in Melbourne during the late Inter War years.
