About Mount Gravatt East

A large, multicultural suburb

The suburb of Mount Gravatt East is located approximately eight kilometres south east of the Brisbane Central Business District and it covers an approximate area of 4.6 squared kilometres. The suburb is bounded by Creek Road and Newnham Road to the east and Logan Road to the west while the southern border runs along Broadwater Road.

Other main roads that run through the suburb include Cavendish Road, Nursery Road, Carrara Street, Camlet Street, Pine Mountain Road and more. Mount Gravatt East is surrounded by the neighbouring suburbs of Holland Park, Carina Heights, Carindale, Holland Park West, Mansfield, Mount Gravatt, Upper Mount Gravatt, and Wishart.

Originally, Mount Gravatt East was a part of the larger Mount Gravatt which also contained what is now known as Upper Mount Gravatt. The suburb officially became Mount Gravatt East in 1967, its name derived from the nearby landmark Mount Gravatt which was named in 1840. Developments continued in Mount Gravatt East including subdivisions and the opening of schools.

In 1955, Creek Road State School was opened on Newnham Road, but it was renamed to Mount Gravatt East State School in 1956 which is what it is known as today.
Mount Gravatt East is quite a hilly suburb. One of its most well known hills is Mount Thompson which rises approximately 190 metres above sea level. Along Pine Mountain Road there is an old quarry filled with water that is currently owned by Boral. However, it is closed off to the public. There have been trespassers who have used it as a swimming hole but a Brisbane City Council report concluded that it was unsafe to swim in as the water was found to have a pH level of 3.3. As well as this, it was found to contain traces of metals.
