Here’s a map of the middle of central Wellington. Again, mucho props to the NZ Government and LINZ.govt.nz for making this available, copyright is owned by the Crown, etc. I added a couple little purple labels, and shifted a couple of the labels that it came with a little closer to the features they are labeling.

If you follow Majoribanks street to the west from Mt Victoria, it becomes Courtenay Place. Courtenay Place forks into Dixon and Manners Streets. Manners Street is a pedestrian mall for the block where it intersects Cuba Street, which is also a pedestrian mall from about two blocks to the south. The City Library is on the inland edge of Civic Square.

Those fine squiggly lines that aren’t streets are contour lines, on account of this technically being a topographical map. This map fits between the upper two of the three little green rectangles on the map below (Mt. Vic in the lower right and Tinakori Hill in the upper left).

Whee !
