WHAT IS SWINGER HILL?
Swinger Hill, like its name, is a cool little place, in the middle of Woden and is a distinct separate part of Phillip. Its architect-designed streets and buildings comprises 350 medium density dwellings of townhouses, terraces and duplexes which characterise this unique place. The layout of the suburb, designed in the 1970s, is an architectural response to the hillside terrain. Within an eight minute walk to Canberra Hospital, the major treatment and teaching hospital, it is a very sought-after address by the nearby medical staff. Swinger Hill shops include three excellent restaurants, a grocer, hair dresser and health professionals. There is a choice of school: Marist College, Melrose High School and the Mandarin-curriculum Mawson Primary, a Christian primary, and several child care facilities very close by. All the streets are named for Australian architects. "Swinger Hill" is named after Louis Walter Henry Swinger, a surveyor that surveyed the surrounding area in the 1930s.
