Bowie Place in the Avonside red zone and there wasn’t any information on the library website about this street. There was a little bit of information on Papers Past and it was a new street in 1970. It was named after a city councillor C S Bowie. In 1974 it was agreed to build 8 pensioner units on this street and the units would be built by adult apprentices. The apprentices were part of a new scheme and the units were built as part of their 16 week training course. Google maps from 2012 show that the street is blocked off and there are no longer any houses here. It ran off Avonside Drive and I almost missed this tiny street when I walked past it.
