The name 'Point Chevalier' comes from Captain George Robert Chevalier (1825 - 1871), a musketry instructor serving in the 65th Regiment, stationed at the military encampment which was located here during the New Zealand Wars of the 1860s. The houses of the area are predominantly 1920s Californian Bungalows and 1930s & 1940s Art Deco.
