North Terrace is one of the four terraces that bound the central business district of the city of Adelaide, the capital city of South Australia. It runs east-west, along the northern edge of the CBD.[1][2]
Hmmm, well it seem that I still need to write something to push down the text a bit so that it takes up enough room that the table I constructed will start below the first photograph, which I thought it would be nice to keep in its original position. All things considered, I would rather not have gone to all this trouble, but what the heck.

Theoretically, the northern side of North Terrace is part of the Adelaide Parklands. However, much of the space between North Terrace and the River Torrens is occupied by cultural institutions and other public buildings. Starting from West Terrace and travelling east, these buildings include:

(Kintore Avenue)
(Frome Road)
(East Terrace)
Starting at West Terrace and travelling east, the southern side of the street includes:

In October 2007, the extension of the Glenelg Tramline from Victoria Square to the University of South Australia City West campus was completed. The tram now operates along the entire length of King William Street, and along North Terrace between King William Street and the Morphett Street bridge. One stop is located adjacent to the Adelaide Railway Station, with the terminus at the University of South Australia City West campus.
