Barbara Joan Road – Named after Barbara Joan Dellaca, née Lewis, (1952?- 2010). Mrs Dellaca was the wife of Peter Dellaca, owner of the land where the street was developed. Her family wished to “acknowledge Barbara’s history on the site” with the naming of the street. In a subdivision at 158- 160 Awatea Road. Named in 2015.
A small amount of information from the library website. The library didn’t have a suburb for this street and real estate agents have it in both Wigram and Hornby. I know that I will have met Barbara but can’t remember her. Peter and and Barbara were friends with my late brother.
A street with very new houses and still a few empty sections. The houses are mostly brick but none jumped out at me. There wasn’t even columns at the entrances of houses like many new subdivisions seem to have. Mostly lawns with a few shrubs and practically no flowers. Very boring. There was one interesting garden sculpture that I liked.
