Downer sits on calcareous shales from the Canberra Formation, which are overlain by Quaternary alluvium. This reflects the historic “Limestone Plains” that gave Canberra its original name.
The area originally hosted a CSIRO agricultural research facility from the 1930s, which grew opium poppies during World War II. After the suburb’s development, many of the large pine and gum trees planted as wind‑breaks were removed in the 1980s, and a bronze kangaroo sculpture was installed in the local shopping centre in 2019.
