History of Clifton Hill Clifton Hill was an unincorporated crown land before being acquired by East Collingwood. Robert Hoodie initiated early land developments after the acquisition, but controversies and disputes surrounded what was supposed to be a plan to urbanise the city. In 1862, demands by the early settlers of Clifton Hill regarding creating public spaces and other residential developments in the area were made, which was later granted by the Municipal District of East Collingwood. The town became known as a residential suburb with beautiful houses and shops in the 1880s. Just recently, Clifton Hill underwent a major upscaling to attract more investors and settlers.
