The Cathedral College building in East Melbourne

Cathedral College, East Melbourne was an all-boy, Catholic high school, run by the Congregation of Christian Brothers, and located on Victoria Parade, at the intersection of Eades Street, in East Melbourne, Victoria, Australia.

The Catholic Theological College currently operates on a part of the former college site,[4] with the remainder having been converted to apartments.
