traffic in Hastings Street, Napier, 1910s


A postcard view probably taken not long after electric trams began on 8 September 1913 when a Napier council-owned service opened to Port Ahuriri.

The destruction caused by the 1931 earthquake (which also ended Napier trams) makes it hard to relate to this scene today.
