Overview
Southbank sits just 1 km south of Melbourne’s CBD, bordered by the Yarra River and St Kilda Road. With a 2021 census population of 22,631, it has become one of the city’s most densely populated suburbs, dominated by high‑rise apartment towers such as Australia 108 and the former Eureka Tower. The Southbank Promenade, Southgate shopping precinct and Crown Casino create a lively entertainment hub, while the Ophelia sculpture and nearby cultural institutions give the area a vibrant arts feel.
The suburb enjoys excellent public transport, with tram routes 1, 12, 58, 96 and 109 threading the streets and major arterials like Kings Way, Clarendon Street and the West Gate Freeway providing road links. A pedestrian‑friendly promenade forms part of the Capital City Bicycle Trail, albeit with a 10 km/h speed limit for cyclists. Upscale accommodation such as Crown Towers and Crown Metropol sit alongside offices, retail and a growing mix of residential options, offering a convenient, city‑centre lifestyle.
