I can't find who Dundas Street, North Dunedin was named after.
It likely was the guy who delayed abolition of slavery for 15 years.
That seems totally in line with Dunedin priorities to lag behind everywhere else for the primary benefit of the City Councellors and Administrators and a few chosen white people.
Pretty much wraps everything up with a neat little bow.
