City Rise

On Rattray Street and stretching across Tennyson St is Trinity Catholic College which is part of a Catholic precinct which includes St Joseph's Cathedral (1886) and St Dominics Priory (1878). The priory was the mother house of a large congregation of Dominican nuns. This Catholic presence dated from 1862 when an earlier church and presbytery and St Joseph's School, now St Joseph's Cathedral School, a primary school, were built. St Joseph's Hall, between Rattray St and Bishop's Place, opened in 1899. Above Rattray St and opposite the cathedral is the former Bishops Palace and a large building which formerly housed the Christian Brothers who staffed St Pauls High School. The original site of St Joseph's Cathedral School was also in Rattery St. The Catholic precinct has been unofficially designated the "Southern Vatican" "It would be difficult to find such a concentration of buildings of one religious denomination in any other New Zealand town." "From the corner of Rattray and Smith Sts, the impressive stone frontage of St Joseph's Catholic Cathedral has gazed patronisingly down on this southern seat of Presbyterianism, this New Edinburgh". ==Belleknowes==

Belleknowes is a smaller suburb, nestled within the Town Belt close to the points where City Rise, Mornington, and Roslyn meet. Its most notable feature is Belleknowes Golf Course, the closest golf course to the centre of Dunedin. A memorial seat dedicated to local historian Robert Gilkison overlooks the golf course with a view across the southern end of Otago Harbour to the suburb of Anderson's Bay. Belleknowes is also the site of the historic housing development the Windle Settlement, 20 houses designed for workers and built in 1906, which is now a registered historic area. Also of note within the suburb are several parks such as Jubilee Park and Robin Hood Park, the latter of which is home to the Beverly-Begg Observatory. ==Demographics==
