The Cascade Brewery, the oldest brewery in Australia, is located in here.

Huon Road runs through South Hobart and is an extension of Davey Street. Huon Road used to be named "The Huon Highway" and was the major road connecting towns that extended into the Huon Valley until the opening of the Southern Outlet during the latter half of the 20th century. Autumn time during the 1950s would see apple trucks continually travelling along this road carting apples to Europe, thus helping Tasmania to earn its title of "The Apple Isle".^[2]
