Introduction

Imagine a time when life was so certain that when you built a building for your business you were confident enough in the future that you put the name of the business into the very fabric of the building.

This is not a time of mergers and takeovers of globalisation and restructure, this is when life was more local and certain.

There are a number of such buildings around and so this blog is an attempt to record some of them and more importantly a bit of the history of the business which by and large are no longer with us.

If you know something about any of these business please add a comment. You can do this without having to sign up for anything and can be anonomous if you prefer.

Trustee Executors and Agency Company Ltd

Cnr Water and Bond Streets. This is one of the few buildings I have noticed which are still occupied by the original tennant.
A brief history of Trustee Executors is to be found on their web site here http://www.trustees.co.nz/ABOUTUS/HistoryValues/tabid/92/Default.aspx so not much point in repeating it. There is also a picture of the same building in times past which makes for an interesting comparison.
