About Gardenvale
Gardenvale is a suburb in Melbourne about 10 kilometres south-east of the central business district, in the City of Glen Eira. Before its subdivision in 1908 the area was a paddock owned by the Lemprière family and used as a polo ground; the railway station, built in 1907, was named Garden Vale, possibly after market gardens in the surrounding countryside. The suburb is mostly residential with a strip shopping centre on Gardenvale Road, bounded by the Nepean Highway to the west, and Elster Creek flows through it.
