Foster Street – Named after John Foster (1817- 1903). Foster was a road contractor of Riccarton and lived on the section of Princess Street which became Foster Street. First mentioned in the Star in 1897.
Wee bit of information from library website. This street is now part of the shopping centre Tower Junction. The only photo I took was of a small garden at the back of the shops. I prefer to walk to this shopping centre as the parking is always so busy. Parking is worse since they took away a lot of the parking to add in more shops.
