Wilmot Street
Wilmot Street is a CBD laneway that functions primarily as a service street with shared street pedestrian activity.
It supports back-of-house access, loading and building servicing, with little ground-level activation.
Wilmot Street plays a functional role within the CBD's laneway network, prioritising servicing and access rather than destinational use.
There is a way through, but it reads as a service lane. People use it without seeking it out.
A service lane with little reason to stay. Any street life would have to start from scratch.
Almost no shops. Old brick walls and a loading dock dominate.
At 7.7 m it is wide, wide enough that as a walking-only lane it would feel exposed without more shops along it.
A plain high, medium or low read on each of the four. Read across the four to see where the lane is strong and where it falls short.
