Little Bourke Street in the Melbourne central business district runs roughly east–west within the Hoddle Grid. It is a one-way street heading in a westward direction. The street intersects with Spencer Street at its western end and Spring Street at its eastern end.[1] Melbourne's Chinatown, which extends between the corners of Swanston and Exhibition streets, is a major feature of the street.[2]

The street was once notorious for crime and prostitution, and in this capacity was used as a reference by Fergus Hume for his 1886 novel The Mystery of a Hansom Cab.
