| Description | Sometimes known as Casselden Lane or Casselden Street. Casselden Place was classified as a private place. Named pre-1856. Located at or near: 11-15 Little Lonsdale St. Probable or possible origin of name: John Casselden, bootmaker, adjacent, 179 Lonsdale Street East. Location is approximate. For more information, see: Bate, W., Broome, R., Davis, N., May, A. J., & Stitt, H. (2024). The story of Melbourne’s lanes: Essential but unplanned (pp. 182, 93, 107, 167, 184-185). ISBN 978-1-875173-12-9. "The Casselden Place Skyscraper, built in 1992, is 166 metres tall and towers over Casselden Place, once the site of the many and varied activities of 'Little Lon' that contributed to its infamy. Casselden Place testifies to transformative influences that have made many Melbourne lanes unrecognisable over the last generation." p. 185. |
