Victoria Park, Devonport North Sir George Grey Special Collections Auckland City Libraries 4554 A 1900 Borough of Devonport map shows most of the suburb subdivided into residential sections, but some large tracts remain undeveloped, notably in north Devonport, Cheltenham and Stanley Bay. Some large lots close to Stanley Bay were advertised for auction in 1889 as part of the Stanley Point and Sunnyside subdivision, and the area today contains a number of villas built around the turn of the century. North Shore Heritage - Thematic Review Report 146
Ferry services to Stanley Bay began in 1900. Although this service was less frequent and used smaller boats, it encouraged further residential development. A 1924 map shows the area fully subdivided into residential lots of varying size, and the wharf with its ‘Ferry to Auckland’ is clearly shown. Fig. 16. Borough of Devonport, prepared by Harrison & Foster Authorised Surveyors. C.1900, North Shore Libraries, T2295. By 1916 the waterfront was fully built up, as was most of the land each side of Calliope Road and on the slopes of Mt Victoria and North Head. Remaining large tracts of land in North Devonport were developed between the world wars, and the land at Narrow Neck was subdivided in the 1920s. The Bayswater peninsula (known as O‟Neill‟s Point) was subdivided in 1910 and named as the Town of Bayswater on early plans. It extended to the east beyond Balfour Road and included Lansdowne Road, Beresford Street, Marine Terrace, Bayswater Avenue (then King Edward Parade) and Norwood Road. Bayswater and Belmont developed with the advent of the Bayswater wharf, the ferry service, and the steam tram, which ran the length of Bayswater Avenue from 1910. Dwellings sprang up on both sides of Lake Road from Belmont north towards Takapuna. In 1935 the eastern part of O‟Neill‟s Point, or Bayswater, was still in farmland, and was later developed for state housing, including Bardia Street, Philomel Crescent, Diomede Street, Leander Road and Plymouth Crescent. Further around Shoal Bay other state housing areas included Marsden Street and Hillary Crescent. The design of many of these areas varied from the traditional piecemeal development characterised by a grid layout and rectangular sections. Instead, a more integrated development was planned, with cul-de-sacs and crescents were frequently used, houses were oriented to the north and were well linked to nearby coastal reserves with pedestrian paths. The hammer and sickle road layout of Philomel Crescent and Diomede Street, with its illusion to communist symbolism, has occasioned comment over the years.
