Chatswood, New South Wales
Chatswood is an affluent business district in the Lower North Shore of Sydney, in the state of New South Wales, Australia 10 kilometres north of the Sydney central business district. It is the administrative centre of the local government area of the City of Willoughby.
==History==
Chatswood was named after Charlotte Harnett, wife of then Mayor of Willoughby and a pioneer of the district, Richard Harnett, and the original "wooded" nature of the area. The moniker derives from her nickname "Chattie" 〔http://www.visitchatswood.com.au/history/chatswood/〕 and was shortened from Chattie's Wood to Chatswood.
Residential settlement of Chatswood began in 1876 and grew with the installation of the North Shore railway line in 1890 and also increased with the opening of the Harbour Bridge in 1932.〔http://www.willoughbydhs.org.au/History/index.html Willoughby District Historical Society〕
Chatswood Post Office opened on 1 August 1879, closed in 1886 and reopened in 1887.
