Paddington, NSW, Australia.
Named after the London borough, Paddington was a densely wooded hillside when the first fleet sailed into Port Jackson 1788. The land was cleared and by 1810 Thomas West had built a house, watermill and planted an orchard. In 1818 Robert Cooper built the Glenmore Distillery. The Military Barracks were opened in 1848.
Between 1860 and 1890 some 3,800 terrace houses were constructed giving Paddington its unique character. The terrace design was based on similar houses in London.
Paddington continued to prosper in the years before World War I. When the war ended, people turned away from the inner city suburbs and Paddington went into decline. By the end of World War II there were plans to demolish the terraces, straighten out the winding streets and turn the suburb into a precinct of high-rise home units. These plans never came to fruition.
The revival of Paddington began in the 1950's with the arrival of migrants from the Mediterranean. Today the suburb's unique character and proximity to the city has made it extremely popular with business, artists and professional people. The restored Victorian terrace houses sell for well in excess of 1 Million www.sullivans.com.au
