Comments The book called ‘Fitzroy Urban Conservation Study Review: Report, Planning Guidelines and Thematic History’ is a report released by Allom Lovell and Associates Pty Ltd in November 1992.

This book mentions and widely discusses many kinds of materials in Fitzroy. Historical evidences such as the history as first suburb of Melbourne, and the geographical information such as streets are the bases of this book. In the category which shows facilities of entertainment in Fitzroy, such facilities as sports, arts, fun, restaurant and theatre are emphasised. All cinemas in Fitzroy including Merri Picture Theatre, Palace Theatre and Regent Theatre are also detailed.

This book is useful in order to research old Fitzroy. Many of facilities from the end of 1800s are picked up and discussed in the book. In the part of theatre, the geographical information such as the places or street names where the theatres are built and neighbour information around the theatres such as hotels and bars. Also it is shown that how popular the cinemas were in old Fitzroy and refers to the decline of film industry a bit as well.

However, the part of theatre has only 3 pages and limits the information of each theatre since there are several theatres in Fitzroy.
