Cabarita, New South Wales
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Cabarita is a suburb of Sydney, in the state of New South Wales, Australia.
Cabarita is a small suburb within the Canada Bay council of Sydney. It is a picturesque suburb which lies along on the Parramatta River, slightly north of Concord. Historically, the suburb consisted of heavy industry and swamp, yet today only the Arnott's biscuit factory remains as housing developments replaced the industry, and golf courses covered the swamps. The suburb has undergone a similar transformation to the olympic site in Sydney.
More famous for the suburb are the housing communities that litter this region, such as Cape Cabarita and Breakfast Point housing villages, which include playing fields, restaurants, gymnasiums, golf courses etc. Cabarita also lies on the Sydney Ferries Parramatta river service, known as the Rivercat service. Until 1948, an electric tramway ran down Cabarita Road to connect the suburb with Burwood, Enfield and Ashfield.
