In the future dairy produce front the Auckland Province will be shipped from Tooley Street to Tooley Street. The London waterside street of that name has long been associated with the Dominion’s export trade, and the Auckland City Council has now decided that the street serving the new export cold store in Mechanics’ Bay is to be named Tooley Street, provided the Auckland Harbour Board agrees. The suggestion for the change in name came from the Auckland Farmers’ Freezing Company, Limited, which owns the new store. Originally this street, which runs parallel to King’s Drive, was known as Haig Street, but in June last the name was changed to Pershing Street qs part of the plan to avoid duplications in street names.
