Locals are quite divided apparently on the modernist look of Federation Square (called the “deconstructivist” style), but it has certainly quickly become Melbourne's great meeting place. Hard to believe just a few years ago nothing like this existed in the city. The complex comprises live theatres, the Australian national cinema, a radio station, and the National Gallery of Victoria, amongst many cafes and restaurants. The building centre-right features a giant screen where big sporting events and other televised events are shown for free.
