replace each comma with (comma and new line ",\n"), if you're showing it in a UILabel make sure to set the height and the number of lines first to 0 using property numberOfLines.

 NSString *stringFoo = @"Circular Quay W, The Rocks NSW, Australia";
 stringFoo = [stringFoo stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString: @"," withString:@",\n"];

Assuming that you are displaying the string in a UILabel.

NSString *str = @"Circular Quay W, The Rocks NSW, Australia";
str = [str stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString:@", " withString:@",\n"];

Don't forget to set numberOfLines of the label to 0. This lets the label to show multiline text.

label.numberOfLines = 0;

This should do the job:

[NSString stringWithString:@"Circular Quay W,\n The Rocks NSW,\n Australia"];
