About

History of Freemans Bay, St Mary's Bay and Ponsonby that are among Auckland's oldest neighbourhoods and they can lay fair claim to being its most fascinating.

Ponsonby is one of New Zealand's most famous suburbs, the place where social and political change has fermented and fomented since its origins over 160 years ago.

The tumble of villa-lined streets and grand Victorian buildings have, over the last 160 years, been home to bishops and rabble rousers, poets and brothelkeepers, painters and activists, musicians and sporting heroes, restaurateurs and developers. More than any other New Zealand suburb they have been social crucibles.

This comprehensive history of the neighbourhood brings its vivid history to life, and includes over 600 remarkable images.

Illustrated throughout with monochrome and colour images.
