Kairua Road in the suburb of Hornby, Christchurch

Kairua Road in Hornby and this street is too new to be on the library website. This is a Ngai Tahu development and is an industrial subdivision. There are footpaths on both sides of the road which surprised me for a new street. Only one building here and the rest of the sections are for sale. The street curves around like a crescent and runs off Wilmer Rd. The road is named after Hapukuku Kairua who was a leading chief from Kaiapoi in 1860s.
