Baynes Street lies on the historic Highgate Hill peninsula, where the land slopes steeply from the central ridge of Dornoch Terrace down toward the Brisbane River. The street is set within a high‑density residential area characterised by apartment blocks, many exceeding ten storeys, that have been built along the main spine of the suburb since the 1960s. Its early history includes a corroboree ground known as “the pineapple paddock,” reflecting the Indigenous use of the site before European settlement.

Residents enjoy easy access to several bus routes (192, 196 and 198) that run through Highgate Hill and are within walking distance of the South Bank and Dutton Park train stations. A range of local amenities sits nearby, including West End Gasworks, the Thomas Dixon Centre performing‑arts venue, West End Library, the West End ferry wharf and weekly Green Flea Markets, as well as small parks such as the high‑point lookout, Lyons Playground and Brydon Street park. The Park Church Tongan Congregation on Hampstead Road provides a nearby place of worship within the community.
