Developed in the early 1950s, the area was named as a composite of
Midland and the former
Helena Vale Racecourse.[2] The former racecourse site is now part of Midvale.
A substantial amount of the housing in the suburb is known as State Housing; a significant amount of this housing was redeveloped by the Department of Housing under the "Eastern Horizons New Living Project".[3]
