Stories of Early Forrest
This Heritage Walk is a gentle stroll through the Griffin Plan avenues, circuits, circles and streets of Forrest.
It tells the stories behind land use, naming conventions, landscape, streetscape, architecture and residents from the 1920s to 1960s including detail of the construction workers’ camps, early clubs and statues, government and private housing of the 20s, modernist architecture of the 50s/60s and the street plantings.
This is a Canberra and Region Heritage Festival event, held jointly with the Forrest Residents Group.
