Downer lies in Canberra’s inner north, bounded by Northbourne Avenue, Antill Street and Philip Avenue. It is a short distance from the city centre and well‑connected to surrounding suburbs.
The neighbourhood includes the historic Downer community centre originally built for the CSIRO in the 1930s, a local oval, and a bronze kangaroo sculpture unveiled in 2019. The area also hosts a refurbished shopping centre with a café and veterinary clinic.
The site rests on calcareous shales of the Canberra Formation, which are overlain by Quaternary alluvium. This reflects the limestone origins of the region, historically known as the “Limestone Plains.”
Swinden Street, the nearest Canberra Metro station, is about 0.8 km away, and the larger Dickson Interchange is roughly 1.3 km distant, providing convenient access to the wider ACT rail network.
