Geraldine Street in the suburb of Edgeware, Christchurch

Geraldine Street – Formerly Fitzgerald Street. Named after the FitzGerald family. Re-named Geraldine Street. Named after the clan name of the FitzGerald family. Re-named Geraldine Street on 1 September 1948 when 120 streets were re-named. The FitzGerald family came from Ireland.

A small amount of information from the library website. This was a fairly long street to walk and there are a huge number of flats. Most are in good condition and again there was a couple of exceptions. There are some great mosaics on the street. One of the photos is of flats where my older son used to own a place. I am assuming that there is no one living in the extremely overgrown house.
