Homebush is a suburb in the
Inner West of Sydney, in the
state of New South Wales,
Australia. It is located 15
kilometres west of the Sydney
central business district, in
the local government area of
the Municipality of
Strathfield. Homebush is
located south of Homebush
Bay, an inlet of the
Parramatta River. and north
Homebush West.
Homebush has a small row of
shops along Rochester
Street, opposite Homebush
Public School. These shops
extend to The Crescent,
oppositeHomebush railway
station. Many more shops
sprang up along Parramatta
Road in the past. However
these are mostly now shut or
abandoned-looking in
common with other parts of
Parramatta Road, a condition
attributed to increased
congestion and lack of
parking. At least for the time
being car sales yards
continue to flourish along
Parramatta Road but this
main artery through
Homebush has now been re-
zoned high density by
Strathfield Council, such that
highrise can be expected to
appear all along it in future.
