Melbourne Docklands part two: The bad. Nearly a quarter of a century into this urban renewal project, and many parts of it leave a lot to be desired...

@ajsadauskas there isn't really a single "Docklands", instead it has become three distinct zones. The southern part is offices and apartments, with a library and supermarket thrown in. This gives it a definite day vs night difference, especially when all the workers leave at day's end. 

The northern side has apartments and the flailing/failing shopping "district".

The Eastern edge is now mainly just the sports stadium, but that brings a different again vibe when events are on there.
