Appendix 29. The land on each side of Rue Grehan was mostly developed in a succession of small subdivisions. One of the few larger subdivisions in this part of <strong>Akaroa</strong> saw a large block of land between the lower stretch of Rue Grehan and Woodills Road, traversed by both the Grehan and Mill Streams, subdivided as late as 1977, though the land was close to Rue Lavaud which had been built up since the 19 th century. Lot 14 of this subdivision was designated a recreation reserve and given the name Waeckerle’s Green. Ref: DP41124. LINZ AKAROA HERITAGE OVERVIEW : SECTION 9 APPENDICES PAGE 212
Appendix 30. As development crept up Rue Grehan in the 1970s and 1980s, short side streets or driveways were formed to allow building up the slopes. In this way Libeau and Vangioni Lanes came into existence. A relatively large subdivision in 1986-87 was typical of this pattern of development. The pattern also reflected that the mid 19 th century land grants were of long strips of land up the hillsides with relatively short street frontages. These early property lines partly determined the pattern of development up Rue Grehan close to 150 years later. Ref: DP52439. LINZ AKAROA HERITAGE OVERVIEW : SECTION 9 APPENDICES PAGE 213
