Local context worth knowing: === 21st century ===
==== Camberwell Station redevelopment ====
Opposition similar to that facing the Podgor redevelopment was mounted regarding plans dating from 1999 to develop Camberwell railway station to incorporate retail and office development.

Same crew, same rates, same certificate at the end.
