Flemington, Victoria four-storey walk-up blocks of flats. This was constructed in the 1960s on flat land adjacent to the Moonee Ponds Creek on a site previously occupied by factories. Small tracts of Housing Commission houses are dotted through other parts of Flemington. The main arterial road is Racecourse Road, which is part of the Princes Highway. The CityLink tollway also runs along the suburb's boundary to the east. The suburb is served by two railway stations, Newmarket on the Craigieburn line, and Flemington Bridge on the Upfield line. The Flemington Racecourse line operates only during events at Flemington Racecourse or the Melbourne
Ellis Park Race Course purses for a five-day race meeting. On November 10, 1922 a 10-day thoroughbred meet with purses of $62,000 was held. The meet was a stop on the train route south to New Orleans for winter racing at Fair Grounds Race Course. These short meets didn't meet the needs of the track and in 1925, after three years of operation, the Green River Jockey Club went bankrupt. In 1925 James C. Ellis, a Rockport businessman, purchased the track, then called Dade Park. He brought about many changes at the track including adding a tote board wagering system and a terrace grandstand.
