Broadview, South Australia

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Broadview (34°52′S 138°36′E, postcode 5083) is a suburb of Adelaide, South Australia, partially under the City of Port Adelaide Enfield and the City of Prospect. It was laid out in 1915, however the extensive views have now been effectively lost due to later developments. The street layout is unusual as several streets are diagonal instead of the more common rectangular grid.

Broadview is in the City of Port Adelaide Enfield local government area, the South Australian House of Assembly electoral district of Enfield and the Australian House of Representatives Division of Adelaide.
