Abbotsbay

Abbotsbay is an eastern suburb of Notchropolis and the namesake of the Abbotsbay District.

History
Anton Abbott (1885 - 1969) purchased land in the area now known as the Abbotsbay District, in 1939. He named the nearby lake Abbott's Bay (now known as Beresford Lake) and built farms from Tombolo Point in the south to Ryde in the north. Abbott also constructed the Abbott House (now the Abbotsbay Rowing Club).

In 1994, the first roads were built in the area (now known as Abbotsbay). Previously, its location made access difficult. Roads from the town of Plainswood and a small bridge and road from the south (Pete's Corner) were established.

Commercial area
Abbotsbay is currently only residential with no commercial or industrial areas. This will no longer be the case when the Abbotsbay Shopping Village (on Tombolo Road) is opened in 2072.

Abbotsbay Rowing Club
Originally the Abbott House, the Abbotsbay Rowing Club is a major rowing facility in Notchropolis.
