About this object
View of Hastings Street looking south from Shakespeare Road that is thought to have been taken around 1918. Along the left side of the street can be seen the premises of Hannahs and Company (boot providers), S E Cooper (watchmaker, jeweller and optician), A J Williams (chemist), John Chadwick (bookseller and stationer), and Darby’s Stores Limited (fancy goods). On the extreme right of the photograph the Bank of New Zealand stands on the corner of Hastings Street and Browning Street. Signs advertising the Kia ora Luncheon and Tea Rooms, The Universal Providers, Ringland Brothers (tailors and mercers), and W J Tabuteau (Sharebroker, Land and Insurance Agent) are visible along the right side of the street.
In the centre of the image, the Port Ahuriri tram runs along Hastings Street. Cars are parked on either side of the street.
Photographer, Nelson Stedman.
