Places  Victoria was born from two government land organisations - the Urban and Regional Land Corporation, which played a key role in the development of Melbourne's growth corridors, and the Docklands Authority, which was set up in the early 1990s to oversee the development of Melbourne's Docklands. In August 2003, the Docklands Authority and the Urban and Regional Land Corporation merged to become VicUrban. In late 2011, Places Victoria evolved from VicUrban with a mandate to deliver urban renewal.
