Address:
Spencer Street, Melbourne, Victoria Australia, Австралия

Southern Cross railway station (also informally known as Spencer Street station from the previous name) is a major inter-city, regional, and commuter rail station in Docklands, Melbourne. After its modernization and redevelopment in 2006, the station became an example of contemporary architecture and innovative design featuring an undulating roof, a shopping center, a food court, a restaurant, and separate retail outlets inside the station. Exactly then it was renamed from Spencer Street station to Southern Cross station. The redevelopment wasn’t unnoticed and the station has been awarded the Royal Institute of British Architects' Lubetkin Prize as the most outstanding building outside the European Union. Southern Cross has 16 platforms and 22 tracks, as well as bus and tram connections.
