MELBOURNE CENTENARY ILLUMINATIONS
Lavish decorations by day and elaborate lighting effects by night will transform Melbourne during the centenary celebrations. Four and a-half miles of streets will be equipped with standards connected with festoons of coloured electric lights and gay bunting. Specially illuminated .pylons about 40ft high will be erected at each side of Prince’s-Bridge, and a series of smaller pylons will carry the decorations across the bridge itself, thus retaining an unobstructed view across Prince’s Bridge and down St. Kikla road to the Shrine of Remembrance.
Artists, illuminating engineers, and specialists in associated fields have been invited to assist in plannng the street decoratons.
