Linkwater Way in Parklands – Name proposed in 2002. This is from the old library website street information. Then I decided to look at the new library website information – Forest Park Estate Smith Developments Limited Name proposed in 2002. The street would link Bottle Lake Drive and Lamorna Road.
I then found this information on an archived council page from 2002 – That the Board ask Smith Developments Limited to choose a name from the list of approved Maori street names to substitute for Linkwater Way.
As the street is still Linkwater Way the developers obviously ignored the council. I don’t know what waters the street is linking without trying to find a map of the various waterway.
I am not sure why I didn’t take photos here as I quite liked the street. The houses were all different styles and many had nice gardens. There is an entrance to Arthur Adcock Memorial Reserve here and I am now wondering if the large boulder in the middle of the reserve used to have a plaque on it.
