Best city Ẅellington. You must go to Te Papa, so much to see there, and if you can walk around Zealandia, they have brought back so many birds, especially NZ parrots Kaka and parakeets that now fly around Welly and have even started breeding in the city!

Back in my mother's day, Courtenay Place was the bus station (before it was moved to the train station), and before that it was a tram station, so originally it was very much a Place. In that era, Vivian Street was the centre of the city's night life and red light district. All of the Quay streets used to be the city's waterfront, until the land was progressively reclaimed and the shoreline was pushed back to where it is now. Wellington has indeed changed a lot over the last century and half.

Oriental Bay was where many Italian immigrants lived. Quite a few bought fishing boats and started fish supply businesses. My mum's aunt had a similar old house on the hill above the bay.

In the "old days" New Zealanders did not even know what coffee was. My Italian mum used to tell us that in the 1950's her mum was brewing coffee and the neighbour looked over the fence and asked what the lovely smell was. Even in the 1970s she had to go to a delicatessen to get roasted coffee beans . All you could get at a supermarket was Nescafe instant.

that’s not true for many parts of the country. In the 1950s and 1960s, many “coffee bars” served coffee made from freshly-ground beans. Places like Stewart’s Coffee House in Dunedin, which was founded in the mid-1950s

Notably, a Kiwi also invented the first instant coffee. David Strang, from Invercargill, patented this process in 1890.

That's what happens and it's awful. I saw a lovely place with beautiful gardens that probably was an old couple's house. It was immaculate place in avondale Auckland. The kids probably wanted a bag of money...? A developer bought it and adjacent properties in Auckland's unplanned rush to increase density. Now it's all multi story apartment blocks. Awful. There's plenty of dumps near with a bare lawn- where the house could be moved off at some point, but they love to take deceased estates and obliterate.

Thank you for another wonderful video. That was a walk down memory lane (again). I used to like Cuba Street. As you previously mentioned Cuba Street was named after an early settlers’ ship, as is Tory Street and Oriental Bay. I spent a lot of time at the Mount Victoria lookout showing visitors the views. My parents, sister and I each had houses on the side of the hill. The views over Evans Bay, the Harbour and airport, Cook Strait (my house) were rather nice. You do get used to the narrow streets. Enough for now, I could go on and on! All the best from Sydney Australia 🇦🇺

I wasn’t so impressed by Wellington when I went to visit, but I was only there for a day. Still, I went driving all over the city to the popular neighborhoods the ones in this video too. I also went to dunedin, which I thought was charming and adorable. Look like half modern upscale and casual/ half Europe. it just seem like a much nicer town then anything Wellington had to offer but the coffee shop and bean bags they went to this video looks really cool.
