Macquarie Park, Administrative division in Northern Sydney, Australia
Macquarie Park spans 6.8 square kilometers north-west of Sydney central business district, containing commercial zones, residential areas, and educational facilities.
The region, originally named Wallumatta by Aboriginal inhabitants, transformed after Governor Lachlan Macquarie's administration between 1810 and 1821.
The area maintains strong connections between industry and education through Macquarie University, following the model of Stanford University's interaction with Silicon Valley.
The suburb connects to Sydney through the Metro North West line, M2 Hills Motorway, and multiple bus services for daily commuters.
The district houses over 180 international corporations, including Microsoft and AstraZeneca, establishing itself as Australia's first Innovation District.
