East Victoria Park includes the Edward Millen Home (originally the Rotunda Hospital), a complex of buildings in the Federation Queen Anne architectural style. The precinct is listed on the State Register of Heritage Places.{{cite web|url=https://inherit.dplh.wa.gov.au/Public/Inventory/Details/a61302d7-dd07-4024-a09b-a855fa4d55a9|title=Edward Millen Home (fmr)|publisher=Heritage Council of Western Australia|access-date=21 December 2023}}

In 1911, the Australian Aborigines Mission established the Dulhi Gunyah home for Noongar children on the corner of Kent Street and Jarrah Road. The home was closed in 1916 and the children were moved to the Carrolup Native Settlement. The facility was later purchased by the Methodist Church and was used as a children's home for wards of the state. It was renamed Mofflyn in 1959 and became part of the Uniting Church. It was eventually demolished and cleared, with the Victoria Heights residential estate constructed on the site in the late 1990s.[https://www.victoriapark.wa.gov.au/council-meetings/agenda-briefing-forum/07-june-2022/702/documents/12.5-5-town-of-victoria-park-local-heritage-survey-amended-april-2022.pdf Victoria Park Local Heritage Survey], p. 33

East Victoria Park was opened for residential subdivision in the early 1900s, with early housing estates including Bickford Estate, Brixton Township, Canterbury Park, Canning Park, Hillcrest Estate and Balmoral Estate. Development was spurred by the extension of the Perth tramways in 1905, with the line running down what is now Albany Highway. It was extended to a terminus at Patricia Street in 1934, and during World War II was further extended to a munitions factory on Welshpool Road. The tramways were closed in 1950 and replaced with bus services.https://www.victoriaparklibrary.wa.gov.au/Profiles/library/Assets/ClientData/Documents/Local_History/History/Geoff-Gallop-Know-Your-Suburb_Victoria-Park-and-East-Victoria-Park.pdf {{Bare URL PDF|date=August 2024}}

A railway station on the South Western Railway was opened at Mint Street in 1912 – originally named East Victoria Park station but renamed Carlisle station in 1919. This was joined by Oats Street station further to the east in 1954.

After World War II, bushland to the west of Berwick Street adjoining the Collier Pine Plantation was opened for residential subdivision. This area was originally known as the Millen Estate and included a number of war service homes. Many residents found work in the Welshpool industrial area. New schools were built in the 1950s, including Millen Primary School and St. Francis Xavier College (now part of Ursula Frayne Catholic College), while East Victoria Park Primary School was relocated to its present site in 1977.
