Homer Place in Upper Riccarton and nothing on library website for this street yet most houses were built in 1950s. The sewage was connected to this street in 1954. There were a few death notices on Papers Past plus engagement notices. Ads for selling items but not a lot on Papers Past.
I was surprised that it wasn’t a state house street as most the surrounding streets have state houses. There was a footpath on both sides of the street which is a good indicator that it is an older street. A couple of the houses were looking very rundown but nothing really stood out for me. I am assuming that it was named after after the Greek poet Homer and this reminds me that I have Iliad on my kindle but haven’t read it yet.
