Downer was originally a CSIRO agricultural research site in the 1930s and later grew opium poppies during World War II; many of the large pine and gum trees around the former CSIRO buildings date from that era.
The area sits on calcareous shales of the Canberra Formation, which are overlain by Quaternary alluvium, reflecting the limestone plains that gave Canberra its early name.
