Grey Lynn historian Tania Mace has taken a deep dive into a well known older part of Auckland she calls home.

Her book, The Near West covers the history,  gentrification and people of three centrally located Auckland suburbs.

Grey Lynn, Arch Hill and Westmere intersect and have a rich legacy, steeped in industry, growth, urban renewal and multiculturalism.
