Car Rental/Hire Alexandria
Alexandria is an inner-city suburb of Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. Alexandria is located 4 kilometers south of the Sydney central business district and is part of the local government area of the City of Sydney with a postcode 2015.
The rough boundaries of Alexandria are Botany Road to the east, Gardeners Road to the south, Mitchell Road and Sydney Park to the west, and Henderson Road to the north. It is approximately 2 kilometers south of Central Station.
Alexandria was named after Princess Alexandra, wife of King Edward VII. The name was also used for the surrounding parish. In 1868, the Borough of Alexandria was formed, after separating from Waterloo. The former Alexandria Town Hall is in Garden Street.
By 1943 Alexandria was the largest industrial district in Australia and known as the "Birmingham of Australia", with everything from bricks to aeroplanes manufactured in 550 factories in just 1,000 acres (4.0 km2). The municipality was abolished upon merger into the City of Sydney in 1949, along with Darlington, Erskineville, Newtown, Redfern, Waterloo, Paddington and Glebe.
