ProfileRyde
is a leafy suburban area, known for Australia’s first
shopping complex, Top Ryde Shopping Centre, located on the corner of Devlin
Street and Blaxland Road.The
Ryde Bridge crossing the Parramatta River was opened in
1935, and this had a huge impact on the area’s future development. After the
Second World War, Ryde was transformed from semi-rural setting to a
distinctively urban area with a vigorous growth pattern, particularly after
Australia’s first shopping complex, the Top Ryde Shopping Centre, was opened in
1957. There
is a strip of great restaurants, including an Italian restaurant
and steakhouse on Church Street, and Blaxland Street has a mix of Chinese and
Mediterranean foods. Ryde Public School is the local primary school, located on
Pope Street. St Charles’ Primary School and Patrician Brothers Holy Cross
College are on Victoria Road, while the local high school, Ryde Secondary
College, is on Malvina Street. Ryde College of TAFE offers courses in
hospitality, tourism, horticulture and environmental management, and is located
on Blaxland Road. Ryde is only 13.5 km north-west of the CBD and just a
15-minute drive from Chatswood.Specialty
