Description

Fluid City is a story about Melbourne that is also a more general account of local struggles, global markets and the value of waterfront. The book traces the transformation of Melbourne's urban waterfront during the period 1983 to 2004, as the city turned its face to the water and the world, re-inventing itself to attract new flows of global capital.
