Cuba Street has time on its side
- Wellington City Council
- We all know - and mostly love - Cuba Street, but not many of us are familiar with the street name's origin. Despite having popular local haunts like Havana Bar and Fidel’s Café related to the country of Cuba, it’s actually named after an early settler ship called Cuba, which arrived on our fair shores in 1840.

Bringing the hustle and bustle back to the Capital
- Wellington City Council
- Picture this. You’ve jumped off the bus to meet a friend for lunch. You head to your favourite cafe on Cuba Street before spending the afternoon rummaging through vintage shops. Afterwards, you wander into a dinky bar, where you sit and chat over an espresso martini before you car-share a ride home. A day well had.

Getting rid of traffic
- Wellington Scoop
- Last week’s cautious city council move towards keeping traffic out of more of Cuba Street, and converting part of Dixon Street for pedestrians, should be welcomed by almost everyone, except for the few who still think that customers only arrive in cars. Councillors voted 11-3 to limit private vehicle access on Cuba Street between Ghuznee Street and Vivian Street, and on Dixon Street between Taranaki Street and Victoria Street.
