| Joondalup | |
The suburb is named after Lake Joondalup, on the banks of which the suburb resides. The name Joondalup is a Noongar Aboriginal word, first recorded in 1837 and possibly meaning either "place of whiteness or glistening", or "place of a creature that can only move backwards".[3] During the latter part of the 1960's, the Metropolitan Regional Planning Authority developed the Corridor Plan for Perth which was published and adopted in 1970.[4] The plan called for the creation of five 'sub-regional' retail centres (Fremantle, Joondalup, Midland, Armadale and Rockingham) which would form the commercial and economic focus of each 'node', and take the retail burden away from the CBD.[5] The Corridor Plan was not ensorsed by Parliament until 1973[6][7] |
