Greenwood
Greenwood is a northern suburb in the City of Joondalup, on the eastern side of the Mitchell Freeway. It grew from an estate that the Gold Land Development Corporation began developing as Greenwood Forest in 1969, and it has had its own train station since 2005.
The housing
Greenwood is mostly detached houses. The 2021 Census counted 3,948 private dwellings, and 92.6 per cent of the occupied ones were separate houses, with 7.4 per cent semi-detached, row or terrace houses or townhouses. Development of the estate began in 1969, so much of the housing dates from the 1970s onward.
Shops and cafes
Greenwood Village Shopping Centre at 18 Calectasia Street has a Coles, a Liquorland and a Baker’s Delight among its 21 stores. Canham Way in the suburb’s north-east is a small light industrial and service area.
Parks and open space
Parin Park on Canham Way is recorded on the City of Joondalup’s Local Heritage Survey as a historic site. The Parks and Wildlife Service names Greenwood Station as the best rail approach to Yellagonga Regional Park and its Lake Goollelal Loop.
Getting around
Greenwood Station sits on the eastern side of the Mitchell Freeway with car access from Hepburn Avenue, and opened on 29 January 2005 with 600 parking bays and a footbridge over the freeway to its platforms. It is now on the Yanchep Line, and when it opened the trip to the city took about 16 minutes. Bus routes 445, 446 and 447 run through Greenwood between Whitfords Station and Warwick Station.
Education
Greenwood Primary School is at 12 Merivale Way and West Greenwood Primary School is at 101 Coolibah Drive. Greenwood College, a government senior high school at 79 Coolibah Drive, runs elite and specialist programs in volleyball, aviation, dance and music. Liwara Catholic Primary School teaches Pre-Kindy to Year 6 and has served the area since 1974.
