Hobart Map Art

Hobart's map centers on the Derwent River estuary, with the city compressed between kunanyi/Mount Wellington's steep slopes to the west and the river to the east. The grid of downtown streets runs perpendicular to the waterfront, while the northern suburbs sprawl across flat land toward the Tasman Bridge, the sole crossing point that dominates the map's visual weight. Sandy Bay curves south along the river, and the Huon River enters from the south, creating a geography where water and elevation define every neighborhood boundary.
