New Town

New Town extends across a diverse suburban area within Hobart, containing residential neighborhoods, commercial zones, and community facilities at latitude -42.86 and longitude 147.31.

The administrative division formed during Tasmania's colonial period when Hobart expanded its boundaries in the 19th century, establishing new residential settlements beyond the city center.

New Town Cemetery preserves regional heritage through its collection of gravestones and monuments that document the lives of early Tasmanian settlers and community members.

The division connects to central Hobart through multiple bus routes, providing residents access to schools, parks, shops, and essential services throughout the metropolitan area.

This administrative section maintains records of land ownership and cadastral information dating to the implementation of the Torrens title system in the 1800s.
