Fairview St runs between Fripp St and Wolli Creek Road. It was named after "Fairview", the Wollongong Rd home of Alexander Milsop. Milsop was the first Mayor of neighbouring municipality, Hurstville.

You finally got around to my street and you managed to capture a shot of my house too. Excellent.
Sydney - City and Suburbs
Haven't read this blog for ages, you've already covered two streets in which I used to live - Duncan and Eden, Eden has changed a lot, the house that we had half of has been replaced by one of the unit developments and I'm not sure if the old house right on top of the hill in Duncan street is still there (it was a couple of years back) but it may have been replaced wth something larger and newer.
Must keep an eye on your progress so that I can get the lawn mowed before you reach S.
