North Melbourne was an electoral district of the Legislative Assembly[1] in the Australian state of Victoria from 1859[2] to 1927.
The Electoral District of North Melbourne was defined as being bound by Victoria Street/Parade on the south, Nicholson Street on the east, the southern boundary of portion 90, parish of Jika Jika on the north and a line south from Mains Bridge (now Flemington Bridge)[3] to the Victoria Street alignment by the 1858 Electoral Districts Act.[2] This included the suburbs of Carlton, Parkville and North Melbourne.
The district was abolished, along with several others, when the Electoral Districts Act 1926[4] was implemented in 1927.
Two members initially,[2] one from the redistribution of 1889 when Port Melbourne and other districts were created.[1]
Prendergast went on to represent the Electoral district of Footscray, which was re-created in 1927.[1]
