Overport

Overport is a hilly residential area in Durban, South Africa.

The name Overport was coined by William Hartley, the eighth Mayor of Durban for an estate he developed in what had up to then been called West Hill.

The estate was bordered by today's Julia, Springfield, Essenwood (now Stephen Dlamini),[1] and Brickfield (now Felix Dlamini) Roads [1] Archived 4 March 2016 at the Wayback Machine, although the modern term Overport is commonly used to describe a larger and slightly different area.

Overport, particularly west of Ridge Road is largely an Indian area and has numerous mosques and temples.

It has numerous Halaal eating establishments, many along Sparks (now Moses Kotane) Road.
