The Geoscience Australia Gazetteer of Australia lists the following:


NORTH CANBERRA          -35 16          149 09
CANBERRA CENTRAL        -35 17          149 07
SOUTH CANBERRA          -35 20          149 08
CANBERRA                -35 18          149 07
CANBERRA                -35 18          149 08
PARKES                  -35 18          149 08

So "Canberra" is halfway between North and South Canberra, and a bit
south of Canberra Central (Civic) = Parkes, to the resolution of the
given coordinates (approx. 1.8km).

For aesthetic reasons, I'd mark the spot as the centre of the
Parliamentary Triangle, which is about Reconciliation Place.
