Fyshwick (code postal: ACT 2609) est un quartier de l'arrondissement de Canberra Sud, à Canberra la capitale fédérale de l'Australie qui a la particularité d'être coupé en deux par la seule ligne de chemin de fer de la ville. Il doit son nom à Sir Plillip Fycks, un homme politique tasmanien qui fut un des artisans de la fédération australienne. Les rues du quartier portent des noms de villes ou de régions industrielles d'Australie comme Isa Street pour la ville de Mount Isa, Townsville Street pour la ville de Townsville. C'est une zone d'industrie légère et accessoirement de prostitution.

Fyshwick (/fɪʃwɪk/) is a retail and light industrial suburb of Canberra, Australia, east of the South Canberra district. At the 2016 census, Fyshwick had a population of 56. It has many motor vehicle dealers, stores selling home furnishings and hardware, and stores that sell goods wholesale. There are also some fast-food outlets. Fyshwick was also known for firework retailers before their 2009 ban from public purchase in the Australian Capital Territory (ACT). It was named after Sir Philip Fysh, a Tasmanian politician who assisted in bringing about Australia's Federation. The suffix "wick", from Old English, means "dwelling place" – and, by extension, "village" or "district". Its streets are named after Australia's industrial towns and regions – for example, Mount Isa is represented by Isa Street and Townsville is represented by Townsville Street. It is known for its adult entertainment industry. Fyshwick and Mitchell are the two places in the ACT where strip clubs and brothels may operate legally. Prostitution in the ACT was decriminalised in 1992, but strip clubs and brothels are restricted to those two suburbs. The only railway line into Canberra runs through the middle of Fyshwick, dividing the area into halves. Ipswich and Newcastle Streets as well as the Monaro Highway cross the railway line, uniting both halves of Fyshwick. The Fyshwick sewage treatment works was built in 1967 to treat waste water that could not easily be pumped to the other side of Canberra. It is now used to treat industrial waste water, which is then used to water the Duntroon grounds and golf course.
