Northbridge is a suburb on the Lower North Shore of Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. It is located 6 kilometres (3.7 mi) north of the Sydney Central Business District, and 3 kilometres (1.9 mi) north of the North Sydney CBD in the local government area of the City of Willoughby. The major transport and shopping hub of Chatswood is 3 kilometres (1.9 mi) north west of Northbridge.
Northbridge is a quiet, leafy suburb with no through traffic as it occupies a peninsula that extends into Middle Harbour, and is surrounded by bush and water on three sides.
The Suspension Bridge, linking the suburb to Cammeray, has become a recognised symbol of Northbridge, completed in January 1892 and purchased by the state government in 1912.
The suburb celebrated its centenary in 2013.
