Caroline Williams Reporter from North Shore Times

An old tennis court has become a winner at auction, selling for $2.21 million.

The court in Northcote, with stunning views of the Waitematā Harbour and Auckland City skyline, is the only lot on Ocean View Rd to have never been built upon.

An old tennis court has become a winner at auction, selling for $2.21 million.

The court in Northcote, with stunning views of the Waitematā Harbour and Auckland City skyline, is the only lot on Ocean View Rd to have never been built upon.

The 1012 square metre plot of land was purchased by Raymond Russell for £500 in 1956, his daughter Michelle Russell told Stuff.

At the time, he earned just seven shillings and a sixpence per week.

Prior to the auction on Wednesday afternoon, Michelle Russell told Stuff she had decided to sell as the property had become too hard for her to maintain.

She was also mindful of the housing crisis, and thought the land would provide someone with the opportunity to “put something nice on there”.

“My dream is to sell it to someone who will love it."

Petition: Chip-sealed roads are dangerous

John Gillon from John Gillon - Kaipatiki Local Board

The North Shore Times has an article today on Shore Action's chip seal petition.
Some interesting comments from Auckland Transport saying that the chips are only spread when vehicles drive too fast, and that chip seal is only used on roads where people do not walk or cycle! Unbelievable!

Auckland Transport is woefully out of touch on this serious issue and needs to read the hundreds of comments from people who have signed our petition.
