Melbourne’s biggest graffiti clean-up transforms Flinders St landmark

On September 6, the City of Melbourne embarked on its largest graffiti removal project to date, aiming to restore the iconic 555 Flinders St to its original brilliance.

The ambitious initiative involved the pressure-washing and cleaning of more than 4000 square metres of graffiti from the renowned facade near Flinders Street Station.

Situated along Melbourne’s busiest rail corridor between Flinders Street and Southern Cross Stations, the area has now been returned to a pristine, graffiti-free state.

Lord Mayor Nick Reece, who appeared alongside Cr Davydd Griffiths on September 6, also unveiled plans for future collaborations between the council and its external partners aimed at ensuring the city remains clean and vibrant.
