The cleaning demands of North Melbourne's warehouses, terraces, and new apartments
North Melbourne's 1990s warehouse conversions along Arden Street and Dryburgh Street are iconic: exposed brick, steel-framed mezzanines, polished concrete floors, and double-height ceilings.

Warehouse conversions with exposed brick and steel need dry-dusting…
