| Last updated on - February 26, 2000 Amendment C31 Revised Statement of Significance: The surviving components of the Gordon Street Munitions factory are of state historical and architectural significance as the only surviving remnants of the once vast Footscray Ammunition Factory which was the major provider or military ammunition in Australia from its inception in the 1880s to the post World War II period. (Criterion A4) Historically the Colonial Ammunition Factory was the first factory in Australia to manufacture ammunition and formed the basis of the many munitions complexes both Government and private, which developed in the Footscray and Maribyrnong area. Many other industries which supplied the munitions industry, such as Extruded Metals and Austral Bronze, owed their existence to the Government installations, and the prosperity of the district for much of the twentieth century can be connected to the fortunes of this industry. The munitions industry fashioned the character of this area and offered employment to thousands of men and women. A unique culture developed around the works, particularly in time of war when women took over formerly male jobs. (Criterion B2) Architecturally the cohesive group of red brick buildings demonstrated the fundamental design philosophy of the Commonwealth Defence Department and Public Works in the 1920s to 1950s period with minimum decoration to a functional building. (Criterion C2) Socially, the buildings demonstrate the administrative and staff amenity functions on the site, and through these may imply the former extent and scale of the works. The employment of thousands of people, particularly women during war time created a unique social phenomena.
