This 1921 map shows St Kilda at its peak as Melbourne’s beachside playground. Acland Street, Fitzroy Street, the Esplanade, and St Kilda Pier are clearly marked, along with Luna Park (thrilling crowds since 1912) and the grand hotels that lined the foreshore.
The municipality plan preserves street layouts and property boundaries in remarkable detail. Printed on archival 310gsm cotton paper with museum-grade pigments, each map is carefully restored to maintain the character of the original.
Perfect for St Kilda locals tracing their neighbourhood’s history, Melbourne enthusiasts, or anyone wanting wall art that sparks conversation rather than just filling space.

This vintage St Kilda map captures Melbourne’s most vibrant beachside suburb in 1921 – Luna Park drawing thousands beneath Mr Moon’s grin, the Palais de Danse hosting jazz-age revelry, and the Esplanade lined with grand hotels serving Melbourne’s well-to-do. This municipality plan preserves St Kilda at the peak of its reputation as Victoria’s premier seaside resort, when electric trams connected the suburb to the city, sea baths drew swimmers year-round, and the foreshore hummed with entertainment every weekend.
Street names you’ll walk today – Acland, Fitzroy, Carlisle, Grey Street, the Esplanade – appear alongside landmarks like St Kilda Pier stretching into Port Phillip Bay, St Kilda Cricket Ground, and the intricate subdivision patterns that transformed this beachside destination into one of Melbourne’s most storied inner suburbs. Printed on archival 310gsm cotton paper and available framed in handcrafted Victorian Ash, each piece preserves the detail of the original 1921 survey.
This vintage St Kilda map is perfect for locals tracing their neighbourhood’s jazz-age glamour, anyone who’s walked the pier at sunset or ridden the Scenic Railway, or those seeking wall art that connects today’s bohemian beachside culture to yesterday’s grand resort era.
Each map is printed on archival 310gsm cotton rag paper using museum-grade pigment inks, ensuring exceptional colour accuracy and resistance to fading. Available unframed or framed in handcrafted Victorian Ash with an antique white mat board, hand-finished with a special blend of beeswax and carnauba wax.
