Waterloo was named after the 1815 Battle of Waterloo and developed industrially in the 1820s with mills such as the Fisher and Duncan Paper Mill and Waterloo Flour Mill. It later became a working‑class area that has experienced gentrification and urban renewal since the early 2000s.
A 20‑year masterplan released in 2019 envisions up to 6,800 new homes, including high‑rise towers, within Waterloo’s urban renewal zone. The plan also supports new commercial and residential projects linked to the upcoming metro station.
The Waterloo Skate Park, located next to Waterloo Oval, offers modern skate facilities. Nearby green spaces include Moore Park Golf Course and the Centennial Park Children’s Centre, both within about a kilometre.
