I hope this answer encourages debate and proof of what I say, but the first bridge in Melbourne was not built over the Yarra as thought. It was a wooden structure built - over the creek that ran down to the Yarra where Elizabeth Street now stands. I studied the history of Melbourne many years ago but I am hard-pressed to prove the source of what I have just said. To give some credibilty to the possibility of what I say consider the topography of Melbourne, and the fact that Elizabeth Street has become Elizabeth River in several flash floods over the years, a major one in 1972.
