At the intersection of Wigram Road and Minogue Crescent can be found the "Lew Hoad Reserve", a small park named in honour of Lew Hoad. Hoad was born in 1934 and grew up at 43 Wigram Road. He learned to play tennis in the area and from the age of nine was a daily visitor to the Police Boy's Club next to the reserve where he participated in boxing, wrestling, gymnastics, athletics, cricket and rugby league. Hoad went on to be a member of Australia's four Davis Cup winning squads in 1952 to 1956, won Wimbledon twice and was the world's number one tennis player in 1956 before turning professional. The reserve was named after him in 1965.
