FOOTSCRAY HERiTAGE WALK ~ ViCTORiA
#historicalplaces #history #historictowns
The area around Footscray was originally home to the Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung and the Bunurong peoples of the Kulin Nation for more than 40,000 years. Maribyrnong is an anglicised version of the Aboriginal term ‘Mirring-gnay-bir-nong’, which translates as 'I can hear a ringtail possum'.
In 1839 a punt was established on 'Saltwater River' (as the Maribyrnong River was then known) near its junction with the Yarra to provide a crossing point for travellers to Williamstown, Geelong and beyond. A settlement known as ‘Saltwater’ evolved around the punt. This site grew into the city of Footscray, named after an English town. Since this time, the area has seen almost constant change as communities and industries have come and gone.

Lots of history and lovely old buildings in Footscray! I’m happy to learn the old buildings have quite often been refurbished, instead of being torn down (which happens in our area). Great design elements. I especially enjoyed seeing the mural and hearing about him and his family. Nice that new people are moving to the area and keeping the town vibrant! 👌👍👍🌻🌻

We enjoyed hearing about Franco Cozzo and his furniture. And his wayward son. Oh, the facade of the Grand Theater is sad looking these days. The town hall looks great - as do a number of other historic buildings. Thanks for taking us along for the walk!

Hi Jojo and Peter Another beautiful and educational heritage walking tour. Wow Franco was mesmerized byr his passion for his furniture business. The mural means a lot to the residence here, I reckon. Brock Furniture...reminds me of my grandmother in-law's house. She had very detailed wooden furniture just like you introduced in the film 4:11 Its details are as marbulous as I see rich heritage in architecture in this town I am glad I am able to take advantage and witness its existence through the film. It seems you all had a little fun with this walking tour. Thank YOu so much for sharing the precious moments. hahah Jojo's jacket suggest the winter has arrived. Stay warm Jojo and Peter

‘Oh mama Mia, Footscray’ 🤣😂 brilliant start! Super great info and history Joseph did you memorise or do you have a script real? Either way good job! The architecture is interesting! Like the cafe took its name from the once shopping centre that was there! Ooo the baroque style furniture….nice! Nice Muriel. It looks strange seeing the old buildings with things like ‘Vodafone’ on them! Lovely seeing all the architecture and hearing where it comes from! Loved this guys! Love ya’s and cuddles for Ruby! Have a great week ahead ❤
