It is a laneway running roughly north-south between Collins Street and Little Collins Street in the central business district. Located in the heart of the financial sector, Bank Place features many pre-war buildings dating from the 1860s through to the 1920s. The precinct is subject to heritage restrictions and is listed on the Victorian Heritage Register. Bank Place is home to several bars, cafes and eateries that serve many of the nearby office workers. Many of the taller heritage buildings have been converted into loft style apartments. The lane also includes several ornate heritage lamp posts and bluestone alleys. Heritage BuildingsSeveral buildings in the precinct are heritage listed on both the Victorian Heritage Register and also by the National Trust of Australia due to their historic and architectural importance. Mitre TavernThe Mitre Tavern is an historic pub established in 1868 and remodelled in the Queen Anne style between 1900 and 1910.
