Myer Lonsdale Street, including Lonsdale House (former head office building until 1980s & again between 2006 and 2010). Built in 1934, Myer successfully applied to demolish Lonsdale House in 2009 to widen Caledonian Lane for delivery trucks despite the buildings being in a City of Melbourne Heritage Overlay, retaining just the facades of two Victorian buildings.

Myer (stylised MYER) is an Australian mid-range to upscale department store chain. It trades in all Australian states and one of Australia's two self-governing territories.
