About Carnegie (VIC 3163)

Carnegie, originally called Rosstown, after William Murray Ross, a prominent property developer and entrepreneur, a name change came about due to Ross' failed speculative developments and in 1909 it was renamed Carnegie in an ultimately unsuccessful attempt to secure funds for a library from the philanthropist Andrew Carnegie.

Originally called Rosstown, after developer William Murray Ross one of the early pioneers of the area. The original name lives on in the name of the local hotel, and Rosstown Road. Leila Road is named after Mr Ross's wife, and Grange Road is named after Ross's estate, The Grange, which has since been subdivided and is now suburban housing estates. In 1909 Carnegie was chosen as a new name in an ultimately unsuccessful attempt to secure funds for a library from the philanthropist Andrew Carnegie. Artist's impression of the Rosstown sugar beet mill and railway, in 1876 and before construction had begun Establishment In 1875 Ross began circulating a broadsheet proposal which detailed the Rosstown project, a large scale sugar beet processing mill, a railway line to serve it, and a residential estate, named after him on the edge of the metropolis between Melbourne and the town of Oakleigh. Although he began building the mill, it never began production, and the Rosstown Railway he constructed was never used. However the estate sold well and gradually Rosstown had grown to a reasonable size aided by the opening of the railway to Melbourne in 1879. Carnegie Post Office opened on 1 September 1911. Carnegie was originally part of the City of Caulfield and by the 1920s it had a substantial commercial area. The Carnegie theatre was a popular cinema in the 1930s.
