The West part of Greeves Street from Mahoney Street to Brunswick Street was originally named ‘Mary Street’, but was changed to Greeves Street in 1895.

These houses are located from 1-30 Greeves Street (single storey cottages) and also include 310, 311, 312, and 313 Fitzroy Street and also numbers 4 and 14 Mahoney Street, Fitzroy, which are all two storey (Alfred Friedrich Kursteiner, Dr John J.
