North Terrace, Adelaide


North Terrace is one of the four terraces that bound the central business and residential district of Adelaide, the capital city of South Australia. It runs east-west, along the northern edge of "the square mile". The western end continues on to Port Road, and the eastern end continues across the Adelaide Parklands as Botanic Road.

Theoretically, the northern side of North Terrace is part of the Adelaide Parklands. However, much of the space between North Terrace and the River Torrens is occupied by cultural institutions and other public buildings. Starting from West Terrace and travelling east, these buildings include:

(West Terrace)

(Morphett Street bridge)

(King William Road)

(Kintore Avenue)

(Frome Road)

(East Terrace)

Starting at West Terrace and travelling east, the southern side of the street includes:

(West Terrace)

(Morphett Street bridge)

(King William Street)

(Gawler Place)

(Pulteney Street)

(Frome Street)

(East Terrace)

In October 2007, the extension of the Glenelg Tramline from Victoria Square to the University of South Australia City West campus was completed. In 2009, construction commenced on a further extension of the line west to the Parklands, and then northwest and west through the Parklands to the Adelaide Entertainment Centre at the start of Port Road, Adelaide's major northwestern arterial road.
