9. Melbourne City School is opening up on King Street, only 3 blocks from Elizabeth st

In terms of Development, they should convert:
1. the site of the old Royal Dental hospital at the top of Elizabeth Street into a little park
2. sink the railway lines of Flinders street underground, so the Yarra can be accessed from Elizabeth Street.
3. And limit traffic on Elizabeth Street from 7am to 7pm.
4. Make the buildings increase the amount of greenery on their facades to reduce noise echo
