| 释义 |
Pulteney Street ({{coord|34.923|S|138.606|E}}) is a main road which runs north-south through the middle of the eastern half of the Adelaide city centre,[1] in Adelaide, South Australia. It runs north-south from North Terrace, through Hindmarsh and Hurtle Squares, to South Terrace, where it becomes Unley Road, and subsequently, (at Cross Road), becomes Belair Road. Pulteney Street was named after Admiral Sir Pulteney Malcolm on 23 May 1837, at the behest of Governor Hindmarsh.[2][3] On Pulteney street was the Grand Central Hotel, which was demolished. A car park was buillt in its place. The southern portion of Pulteney Street, between Wakefield Street and South Terrace, was originally named Hanson Street, after Richard Hanson (later Sir Richard), a London solicitor and journalist, and founding member of the South Australian Literary Society in August 1834. In 1846, nearly a decade after the naming, Hanson moved to South Australia, where he served as Premier (1857-1860), Chief Justice of the Supreme Court (from 1861) and as acting Governor (1872-1873). Hanson Street was subsumed into the expanded Pulteney Street in August 1967. The Hanson Street Memorial in Hurtle Square maintains the commemoration of Sir Richard. Pulteney Street is the only one of the city centre's major north-south thoroughfares that does not continue north from North Terrace. This is due to Sir John Langdon Bonython[4] donating over £50,000 to the University of Adelaide for it to build its Great Hall, (named Bonython Hall). One of the conditions of Bonython's bequest was that the hall be built on North Terrace opposite Pulteney Street, thus ensuring that the thoroughfare could not continue north through the parklands and divide the already small campus.[5][6][7] References1. ^{{cite book |title=2003 Adelaide Street Directory, 41st Edition |publisher=UBD (A Division of Universal Press Pty Ltd) |year=2003 |isbn=0-7319-1441-4}} 2. ^Admiral Sir Pulteney Malcolm had made the recommendation that Hindmarsh be appointed Governor of South Australia. 3. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.historysouthaustralia.net/STlist5.htm#pul |title=History of Adelaide Through Street Names - Streets Named on the 23rd May, 1837 |date=2005-03-04 |accessdate=2009-04-24}} 4. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.adb.online.anu.edu.au/biogs/A070345b.htm |title=Sir John Langdon Bonython |work=Australian Dictionary of Biography |publisher=Australian National University |accessdate=2009-03-12}} 5. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.adelaide.edu.au/news/news8801.html |title=Heritage hall is green and cool |date=15 December 2005 |publisher=University of Adelaide |accessdate=2009-03-12}} 6. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.adelaide.edu.au/adelaidean/issues/6781/news6845.html |title=Helping a University treasure keep its cool |last=Salkow |first=Howard |date=September 2005 |work=Adelaidean |publisher=University of Adelaide|accessdate=2009-03-12}} 7. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.postcards.sa.com.au/features2008/uni_heritage_walk.html |title=University Heritage Walk: Keith takes a walk in the Adelaide City region of South Australia |work=Postcards SA |publisher=NWS Nine |accessdate=2009-03-13 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20110312181307/http://www.postcards.sa.com.au/features2008/uni_heritage_walk.html |archivedate=12 March 2011 |df=dmy-all }} See also{{portal-inline|Australian Roads}}Pulteney Grammar School{{Commons category|Pulteney Street, Adelaide}}{{Adelaide CBD Streets}}{{Australia-road-stub}}{{Adelaide-geo-stub}} 1 : Streets in Adelaide |
