Another photo in the Whites Aviation collection; it would have looked good in colour.

That long brand new street towards the bottom is Eruini Street, connecting to an as yet isolated section of Tutere Street, the main part of which didn’t extend south of the intersection with Waimea Road.

We’ve always wondered about that little “parking bay” on the south side of the new intersection (where a solitary car is parked in the picture) — did some bureaucrat decide that the street could be narrowed after that?
