  • This kitsch development evokes reminiscences of Italy, and has a sundial and a statue of Dante based on a similar one in Verona. On the mezzanine level, you’ll find boutiques selling imported and local Italian fashion. Descending the stairs finds the piazza, surrounded by cafés and restaurants that offer wonderful, sunny positions for languid lunches. On the piazza level, Leichhardt Library contains a local history section with many photos of Norton Street, the surrounding areas and the people who once lived there.
