Donaldson Street forms the southern edge of Braddon’s Garden City heritage precinct – an early‑20th‑century “Garden City” subdivision designed by Walter Burley Griffin and today noted for its historic street furniture and mature avenues of exotic trees such as oaks and cedars. The street is fronted by Ainslie School, one of Canberra’s oldest Art‑Deco schools, reinforcing the area’s strong heritage character.

Originally lined with low‑rise houses built in the 1920s, Donaldson now borders a mix of two‑ to three‑storey flats and newer mixed‑use developments, with proposals for higher‑density apartments continuing within the precinct. Excellent transport links include the nearby Elouera Metro station and Northbourne Avenue, and residents enjoy immediate access to Braddon’s lively commercial hub on Mort and Lonsdale streets as well as amenities such as Haig Park, Northbourne Oval, the Ainslie Arts Centre and several boutique breweries and hotels.
