New Brighton, New Zealand

New Brighton is a coastal suburb of Christchurch, New Zealand, about to the east of the city center. In the 2013 census, New Brighton had a population of 2,442. At the heart of the suburb is the New Brighton mall, which is the suburb's primary shopping and entertainment precinct.
New Brighton is one of Eastern Christchurch's main entertainment and tourist centers with its architecturally unique pier and its scenic coastline being the suburbs best known features.
==Naming==
The naming of New Brighton was apparently done on a 'spur of moment' decision by William Fee, an early settler of the area. When Guise Brittan, the Waste Lands Commissioner, visited the area in December 1860, he was recognised and Fee chalked 'New Brighton' on a wooden plank, supposedly in reference to his fellow settler Stephen Brooker, who had come from New Brighton in England. The Māori name for the area is Kaiuau (''kai'' means food and ''aua'' is Yellow-eye mullet) or O-ruapaeroa (an east wind blowing along the shore).〔
The suburb is frequently referred to simply as Brighton, occasionally leading to confusion with Brighton near Dunedin.
