Building Details
A building located on the south eastern corner of Flagstaff Gardens was built for the Inspector General of penal establishment offices and later reused as the Flagstaff Gardens caretakers dwelling.
The building has since been demolished and part of that area is now the stairs leading underground to the Melbourne railway line.
