Nice find! Very jelly of the sweaters and trousers.
Fitzroy through to even Preston these days has gentrified to the point that the op shops aren't worth it. Essendon is much more of a hidden gem that way, hipsters never think of it! Reservoir is still scungey enough but I think it's basically the next Preston
All too true. The hipster-proof fence that used to run along Bell St has well and truly vanished now.
Coburg North most definitely has been breached and I think Pascoe Vale has too. The M80 is the new fence... based on the style and pattern of the developments in the suburbs beyond though, I would be very surprised if the hipsters (in itself an outdated term now, again...) made it there. Much more car dependent and fewer mixed use/retail spaces compared to the postwar areas.
@just_kitten where are the hipster places in coburg or coburg north? true north? cedar fox?
