BGM_The Windsor: Ghosts, Grandeur & a Burning Liquor Licence

Step inside the grand old dame of Naarm - Melbourne-The Hotel Windsor. In this episode of Down the Yarra, we explore the Windsor’s glittering past, scandalous moments, and its uncertain future. From its birth during Marvellous Melbourne boom period to Victoria’s premiere James Munro’s fiery temperance protec, ghost stories in the hallways, and its brush with demolition in the early 2000’s, this iconic cultural landmark has seen it all. We peel back the layers of history, scandal, and luxury - and we reveal what’s next for this archeological treasure. Trigger Warning: This episode contains references to alcohol, temperance movements, and the near lost of a major cultural site. Plus, stay tuned for a teaser on our next episode - when we head just across the road to the chic and storied Paris End of Collins Street.
