This is in the Melbourne Herald,  13 March 1929, p. 13. I am particularly interested in the quarter-circle park behind the 'Home Sites' on the corner of Union and Springvale Road. It appears that the thoroughfare to the park, though unlabelled, is for rear access to the business sites and the park itself, and would not be commonly referred to as a road (certainly it has not been given a name or a road/street designation).
