Hoddle Bridge
The Hoddle Bridge is a 1938 arch bridge that carries Punt Road over the Yarra River, connecting Richmond and South Yarra in Melbourne, Australia. History A punt was first established at this point in the river in 1842, the name soon being attached to the north-south road leading to it through Richmond, and to the road through South Yarra across the river to the south, which did not align. In 1895, a footbridge was constructed joining the two roads in connection with a new sewer line that was to cross the river, utilising steel Pratt trusses. The trusses were later reused for a stock bridge over the Maribyrnong River, now known as the Angliss Stock Bridge. A road bridge was first urged by the Melbourne City Council in 1934, and an agreement reached with the State Government in 1936. The Country Roads Board began construction of the bridge in late 1937, with tenders for sub-contracted work (involving driving 240 concrete piles and the construction of four river piers) releas ...

Hoddle Grid
The Hoddle Grid is the contemporary name given to the approximately grid of streets that form the Melbourne central business district, Australia. Bounded by Flinders Street, Spring Street, La Trobe Street, and Spencer Street, it lies at an angle to the rest of the Melbourne suburban grid, and so is easily recognisable. It is named after the surveyor Robert Hoddle, who marked it out in 1837 (to Lonsdale Street, extended to La Trobe Street the next year), based on the city grid established in the first survey of Melbourne conducted by Robert Russell (architect) in 1836, establishing the first formal town plan. This grid of streets, laid out when there were only a few hundred settlers, became the nucleus for what is now Melbourne, a city of over five million people. History In 1835 John Batman and John Pascoe Fawkner organised rival groups of free settlers from Van Diemen's Land (now called Tasmania) to cross Bass Strait and illegally settle on the site of what would ...
