Street renaming


I was digging through my picture files and came across this one which I took shortly after the first round of renaming in 2007. It's one of the ones which I regret because Dr William Stanger, the Surveyor General, was the man who actually did the first survey of Durban beginning in 1845 and would have been instrumental in deciding where the streets were to go, including the one bearing his name.


Another picture I found was this which was sent to me a couple of years ago and which, by coincidence, was taken in Mangosuthu Highway, which is one of the streets shortly to be renamed.
