NearSpace Storage & Parking Marketplace
NearSpace is an Australian marketplace designed to connect people who have unused space with people looking for affordable local parking and storage.
If you have an empty driveway, unused garage, spare parking spot, shed, storage room or similar space, you can list it on NearSpace and potentially turn that unused space into extra income.
NearSpace makes it simple to showcase your available space, add photos and details, set your price and reach people searching for parking and storage in their local area.
Whether you have space available for a few weeks, several months or longer, NearSpace provides a simple way to make better use of it.
Listing your space is currently free, so there is nothing to lose by giving your unused space a chance to earn.
NearSpace is starting in Melbourne and expanding across Australia, helping local property owners make the most of their available space while giving customers more affordable and convenient options.
If you have unused space, consider listing it on NearSpace and turn space you are not using into an opportunity for extra income.

Distinguished and Famous people from North Melbourne
🏫 Albert Mattingley
Albert Mattingley helped shape North Melbourne’s early educational life and later recorded its history. His family arrived in 1852, when newcomers camped north of Flagstaff Hill, and became involved in the growing community. His recollections describe streets taking shape, schools opening and the wildlife of the wetlands before later development transformed them. They preserve a landscape of birds and marshes behind a suburb now associated with dense streets and industry. Mattingley’s value lies partly in that double role: he participated in the district’s development, then left a detailed account of what the changes displaced.
🏉 James Henry Gardiner
James Henry Gardiner helped establish the North Melbourne Football Club and served it as a player and in a remarkable range of administrative roles. Club history records that he sold scrap iron to help buy its first footballs. Outside the game he manufactured perambulators and go-carts, served on council and twice became mayor. His ambition to see North admitted to the VFL was realised in 1925, after his death. The club’s later Hall of Fame recognised work that began with very practical fundraising. Before grandstands and memberships, somebody still had to find the money for a ball.
