Ponsonby History, with Edward Bennett

Ponsonby is now one of Auckland’s most well-known and fashionable neighbourhoods. Learn how a farming community was transformed into a middle-class suburb, then became a working-class area and a melting pot of cultures. Hear about some of the notable (and sometimes notorious) characters who lived there. This illustrated lecture by historian Edward Bennett gives an overview of the architectural, political and social history of the area.
