Wellington 2040 - our vision
- Architectural Centre Inc
- While no one knows for sure, in about 30 years, there are bound to be a few changes.

There is discussion on the Waterfront (like this image of what we think / hope it might be like), as well as discussion on the upcoming Basin Reserve flyover ‘consultation’ and the image that was published by the Capital Times two weeks ago.

Consultation will run for six weeks.
