Located 22 kilometers (13.6 miles) northeast of Melbourne’s Central Business District City of Manningham is a suburb known as Doncaster East. It’s worth to note that Doncaster is something of a late bloomer as inhabitants didn’t arrive here until the late 1960s and 1970s. Now the neighborhood is in bloom again. Following the lead of other eastern mid-ring suburbs, it is experiencing a boom in high and medium density accommodation. Prime examples are the high-rise developments around Doncaster Hill, one of the highest points in metropolitan Melbourne, and the shopping mecca Westfield Doncaster. Tourists are also drawn to the suburb because of its parks and elevation. Interested in visiting Doncaster East, Australia?
