The avenue was initially named 'East Avenue' upon its completion in 1887. Nonetheless in March 1909 the street, like many others in the region, was renamed. It was given the name 'Hart Avenue' after Sir Robert Hart, 1st Baronet, a British consular official in China.

The northwestern end of the road starts at its junction with Carnarvon Road and Humphrey's Avenue. Prat Avenue branches from it immediately east of its start. It separates into two different streets halfway down, yet both are known by the same name-one branches east and ends at Chatham Road, the other turns down to Mody Road aligning Blemheim Avenue.
