Norwood Street Towards City
Norwood, South Australia
(From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.)
Norwood (34°55'S 138°38'E) is a suburb of Adelaide, about 4 kilometres east of the Adelaide Central Business District. The suburb is in the City of Norwood Payneham St Peters (the oldest South Australian local government municipality, with a city population over 34,000).
The suburb consists of four segments, being divided into north and south by the major thoroughfare of The Parade, and east and west by Osmond Terrace. It is bounded on the south by Kensington Road, on the north by Magill Road, on the east by Portrush Road and on the west by Fullarton Road. It is a leafy suburb lined with plane trees and grand buildings. It is now a sought-after suburb to live in, but this was not always the case.
Norwood was previously a working class suburb and attracted many European migrants post-World War 2. It still has a very high concentration of people of Italian background. This can be evidenced in the restaurants and fashion boutiques of the Parade. The working class nature can be ascertained by the politics. It tends to be more left-wing in nature than the other eastern suburbs around it.
Many famous South Australians have resided in Norwood; these being women's rights campaigner, Catherine Helen Spence; former Premier Don Dunstan; Mary MacKillop (a candidate for Australia's first saint), writers C.J. Dennis and May Gibbs, and film director Mario Andreacchio
It is also home to a South Australian National Football League (Australian Rules Football) team, the Norwood Redlegs.
