Description
A Collection of 24 photographs depicting both the simplicity and splendour of some of the old buildings from Porirua's past. In Softcovers, previous owners name stamp on front, No date 1990s?, Black and White Photographs, 28 pages, Published By The Porirua Museum Porirua. A Very Good Plus Copy. 'This collection of photographs depicts examples of the variety of buildings constructed for recreational, educational, business and private use in the Porirua area over the last 120 years. few of these buildings now survive as most were built of wood and therefore were highly susceptible to destruction by fire. Many of those structures built of more solid materials such as the original Porirua Asylum, were rendered unsafe by earthquakes. Others have been demolished during the rapid development of Porirua in the last 40 years. With so few of the district's early buildings still standing, it is important to retain a view of our past by using photographs such as those in this publication'
