Hoddle Street, Melbourne
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hoddle Street is a busy arterial road in inner-eastern Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. It was named after Robert Hoddle, architect of Melbourne's Hoddle Grid.
Hoddle Street runs 3.5 km north-south from Clifton Hill to Richmond where it becomes Punt Road (continuing south to Windsor).
The majority of Hoddle Street is a wide section (3 to 4 lanes in each direction) making up a portion of the Hoddle Highway. This section connects the Eastern Freeway and Punt Road to other arterial roads that feed into the Melbourne CBD.
In 1987, the northern end of Hoddle Street was the site of a deadly shooting spree known as the Hoddle Street massacre.
