Description

Labrador is a suburb located on the Gold Coast in Queensland, Australia. At the 2006 Census, Labrador had a population of 15,391, and grew to 16,402 at the 2011 Census. Labrador overlooks the Gold Coast Broadwater to the east and Southport on the southern border. Two noteworthy and historical buildings of 1921 were named after the neighbourhood, a residence called Labrador house and the original Labrador State School. Currently the Gold Coast City Council endorses the Labrador Heritage Walk, and produces a guide booklet which includes twenty one places of historical interest. Three mapped walks have been designed to note the points of interest. Thanks to a collection of preserved photographs at the local studies library in Southport, the booklet is well illustrated.
