The Formative Histories Walking Tour is a guide to architecturally significant sites on Collins Street, Melbourne, Australia.

Take this app with you and it will guide you through 20 historic sites along or near Collins Street in the central city, using images, maps and a personal audio guide.

The Formative Histories Walking Tour was created to assist undergraduate students of architecture history to learn about the history of nineteenth and twentieth century architecture through actually experiencing it on the street, accompanied by an expert audio narrative and archival images.

The Formative App tour gives in-depth information for 20 stops of architectural significance. At each stop users can listen to an audio guide and look at digital photographs and drawings that bring additional information to this experience.
