Description

Batman Park is a small park located on the northern bank of the Yarra River. It is bordered by Spencer Street at the west, Flinders Street Viaduct and Rebecca Walk to the north, and King Street to the east.

The park was established in 1982 through the conversion of a disused freight train rail yard and was named after one of the founders of Melbourne, John Batman with historical associations as a landing place of the Schooner Rebecca and nearby settlement at Batman's Hill.

A pigeon loft in the north-east corner of the park encourages pigeons to roost away from the city buildings and streets. Their eggs are captured and disposed of to curtail the population.
