Hawke, Wentworth

Hawke (/ˈhɔːk/) is an inner-city suburb of Wentworth in the Borough of Newhaven. It is located on the western edge of the Wentworth central business district and serves as a major transport hub for the city, being home to Chalmers Street railway station.

Hawke is jointly named in honour of Timothy Hawke, an early landowner in the region, and Bob Hawke, the 23rd Prime Minister of Australia, following the latter's death in 2019. The suburb was known as West Luscombe until 1967.
