Northcote is a vibrant suburb located in the north of Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. It’s no secret that Melbourne’s inner north is dominated by some pretty epic thoroughfares. High Street was named one of the most livable districts with the 86 corridor tram. Enter High Street, which weaves through the ultra-trendy suburbs of Northcote, Thornbury and Preston, and is easily accessible from the CBD via the 86 tram line (a route so beloved it scored its own music festival last year).
