Wiped off the face of the earth is about right.
If you follow Breck Rd from Heyworth St to where Landseer St is on the left. Where Breck Rd curves slightly left if you look to the right you can see Dobson St running parallel with Breck Rd. That is the approximate direction of MacKenzie St (note the spelling).
I don't know the area that well, I found it on an old street map that I have.
…these are Mackenzie St related (on the left of first pic and full pic at bottom), maybe somebody familiar. I went to Secondary School around the corner and only lived off Everton Rd myself;

….i never knew Liverpools first boxing stadium was on Pudsey St, off London Rd. Opened originally as stables for horse drawn trams, before being converted to a boxing arena in 1911.
Dr Crippen And His Link To Liverpool. The Number Of Famous And Sometimes Infamous People With A Connection To Liverpool Is Incredible.
Hawley Harvey Crippen (1862-1910) - Dr Crippen - was an American later hanged for the murder of his wife.
Living and working in London, Dr Crippen was having an affair with a young lady called Ethel La Neve, when his wife, Cora Henrietta Crippen, disappeared on the 31st January 1910.
Dr Crippen told investigators that his wife had returned to the United States and had died and had been cremated.
A number of people doubted the story, not least Mary Egerton, a theatrical agent and pub landlady in Liverpool and an old friend of Dr Crippens wife. Mary Egerton, owner of the Eagle pub on Pudsey Street in Liverpool (now Ma Egertons pub) passed information to the police investigating the disappearance.
With the police closing in, Dr Crippen and the young Ethel fled to Canada via Antwerp onboard the SS Montrose.
Meanwhile, the body of Dr Crippens wife has been found, she had been poisoned and buried in the basement of the family home.
On the SS Montrose, Ethel had disguised herself as a boy but the captain of the SS Montrose, Captain Henry George Kendall, recognised the pair of them and alerted the authorities by telegram.
Inspector Walter Drew of Scotland Yard raced up to Liverpool, he boarded a White Star Line ship, the SS Laurentic and actually arrived in Canada before Dr Crippen did - and arrested him and Ethel onboard the SS Montrose.
The pair were then brought back to Liverpool on the SS Megantic.
Large crowds were waiting to see them. they were then transported down to London.
Dr Crippen was later hanged, Ehel Le Neve was found not guilty of being an accessory after the fact and was freed.
Captain Henry George Kendall, who had alerted the authorities to the presence of Dr Crippen and Ethel on his ship, the SS Montrose, lived at 3 Harlech Road, Crosby, Liverpool.
On retiring from a life at sea, Captain Kendall moved to 40 Brooke Road, Waterloo, Liverpool.
He passed away in a London nursing home in 1965.
