Former gay strip
Commercial road runs perpendicular to Chapel street and forms the boundarary between South Yarra and Prahran. This street used to be the centre of Melbourne's gay scene, but this title has since moved to Collingwood (see insert above). The Osborne and the Emerson host gay special events on Sundays. You can also find the popular Prahran Market on Commercial road for all your food and fresh produce needs. The market is housed in a beautiful historical building and is a tourist attraction in its own right.
