I’m pretty familiar with the area- one of the more unique parts of the city is the “red zone”, a recovered area which became uninsurable due to the changes in the assessment of land risks post quake.

It’s a weird place as the roads are still there and the trees are still along the edges of the former gardens but all the houses are gone and the sites reverted to grass. Many of the fruit trees on this map are from those gardens.

You can get a good idea from google maps: Avonside Red Zone https://maps.app.goo.gl/bXcnExMeur9oNovp6?g_st=ic

You have to be quick to get the fruit there though ;)
