Announced in 2004, the $1.2 billion Newport Quays project aimed for 2,000 homes, cafés, museums and parks but was stalled after stage 2. By 2011 the original plan was cancelled, and later the Fletcher’s Slip development began, with the first residents moving in during July 2022.
New Port is part of the City of Port Adelaide Enfield, specifically within the Port Adelaide ward that is represented by councillors Joost den Hartog and Steve Vines.
