Agathis Crescent in Wigram and too new for library website. It would have been named after a plant. This street wasn’t here last time I was in the area. I was checking one of my geocaches in Zinnia Park. Note it seems to be missing. The park was much smaller then and today I was able to walk to this street. When I hid the geocache in the park there was a paddock where there is now this street. Houses were built between 2022 and 2024 and they all looked almost exactly the same but I didn’t get a photo. It is a bit of a pity as almost all of them had a red front door and this amused me. The crescent runs off Brusio Drive and this is where my iphone got confused as Apple maps said that not only was the street in Hornby but had part of Brusio Drive as being Agathis Crescent. Luckily google maps had it correctly in Wigram and had it as a crescent and not a rectangle shape.
Edited as I found information on the council website – Agathis, commonly known as kauri, is a genus of 22 species of evergreen tree. The name agathis is derived from Greek and means ‘ball of thread’ for the distinctive cone. The kauri is the most famous native tree in New Zealand, mainly because it is among the largest trees in the world.
