History Downer is a suburb of Canberra, Australia, in the city's inner north. The suburb is bounded by Northbourne Avenue, Antill Street and Philip Avenue.Downer was gazetted in 1960 and named after Sir John Downer (1844–1915) Premier of South Australia and a member of the first Australian Senate in 1901. There is no specific theme for street names. The Downer community centre and shops, which were built for the CSIRO in the 1930s, are an agricultural research facility. The area now comprising Downer was used between 1939 and 1945 as a plantation for the growth of opium poppy to provide a source for medications in the unavailability of imported supplies. Nearby, the Canberra Business Centre until recently occupied the site of the former Downer Primary School. The school closed in 1988.
