Living in Darlinghurst

Darlinghurst is an inner-city, Eastern Suburb of Sydney, located immediately east of the Sydney central business district and Hyde Park, within the local government area of the City of Sydney.

History

The suburb was originally known as Eastern Hill and then Henrietta Town, after Governor Lachlan Macquarie's wife, whose second name was Henrietta. The loyalties changed with the change of governors and the suburb became Darlinghurst in honour of Elizabeth Darling, the popular wife of Governor Ralph Darling, during the early 19th century. The 'hurst' is an old English word for a wooded area. The suburb has undergone massive redevelopments and urban renewal and is now known as one of the City’s most cosmopolitan and upmarket areas.

Transport Links

Being so close to the City means that residents can be in the CBD in minutes, and frequent bus services will take you into the CBD and to the Eastern Beaches.

Shopping and Recreation

Darlinghurst is a prime location for shoppers, diners and clubbers alike, with a vast selection of shops, boutiques and vintage stores, cafes, takeaways and restaurants and some of Sydney’s best bars and nightclubs all located here.

Schools

The suburb is home to East Sydney High School, SCEGGS Darlinghurst and Sydney Grammar School.
