Along Colombo Street

Description
Did you know that Colombo Street is 6.2km long? It runs from Edgeware Road all the way to the bottom of the Port Hills and has bridges crossing the Avon River/Ōtakaro, the railway line and the Heathcote River/Ōpāwaho. Until 1965 you could even drive straight through Cathedral Square to stay on Colombo Street! Journey along Colombo Street in this exhibition that also travels around in time.
