Liquidambar Street in the suburb of Halswell, Christchurch

Liquidambar Street in Halswell and nothing on library website. The council just gives the name of the street but not the reason for the name. Liquidambar is a flowering cherry tree. I was surprised that the valuation website only showed one house as there are several houses here. I found an article dated May 2023 which explained everything. The article was about a petition that nearby residents had presented to the council with their objections to social housing being built here. The petition was declined and there are 17 social housing units here. This does explain a slightly weird incident that I saw when I walked this street. One of the residents in one of the social housing units obviously didn’t want to speak to the man knocking on their door. The man peered through the windows before getting back into his car and speeding off.
