Your post does cover alot whats been going on in Melb and many have their heads in the sand down there living in past.....
I have been a regular business traveller there for the last 30yrs.
Got to say it was once miles ahead of messy Sydney of its roads and the general day to day outlook.
Its chip on its shoulder to be the No1 city over Sydney is a crown of thorns that now is giving.
Years ago traffic at peak was way better but the last 10yrs or so its caught up to Sydney hands down, infact at least in Sydney you can speed reasonably without being pinged whereas Melb, well always been the 0 tolerance State.
Sydney's homeless was isolated around the Cross and Woolloomollo Melb now has just as much and wider from my observations.
I was there last week for 2days, what a nightmare to drive around the CBD and close burbs.
The amount of For Lease signs far out weighs Sydney from observations as well.
Another good job there Dan.
Unemployed youth around the city streets makes you very sus walking around some parts.
Heaps of development going on just wonder what future tenants can afford the rentals the way its going talking about fuel costs for one and the ongoing increase's cost of living...........
