It's working! The new District Plan in action.
- A City for People
- It’s been a month since the Minister for Housing approved Wellington’s trailblazing new District Plan. Thanks to four years of campaigning, and your support, this new Plan has raised building height limits across the city, making it easier to build townhouses and apartments in the places we need them most. It’s early days, but we’re already seeing signs of success. Wellington is finally going to get more homes.

The rise and fall of the housing market
- Live Wellington - a liveable city by design
- BLOG BY PHIL KELLIHER. Just two years ago the housing market was in a frenzy, with properties going for silly money. But now it’s the opposite. For property manager Phil Kelliher, this was vividly illustrated when he noticed a large property in Mt Victoria listed for nearly one million dollars less than its RV.

10 reasons to support character
- Live Wellington - a liveable city by design
- So much has changed since the Wellington City Council voted in June 2021 to strip demolition protection from more than two-thirds of the city's character areas. LIVE WELLington argues it's time for a re-think, and to strike a better balance. We provided this letter to Wellington councillors, in the lead up to the notification of the proposed District Plan on 23 June 2022.

Wellingtonians support retention of more character areas
- Live Wellington - a liveable city by design
- A survey of Wellingtonians has found that while there is support for increasing density in the inner city suburbs, it must be done with care, and there is considerable unease about the Wellington City Council’s plans to remove protections for pre-1930s houses in the inner city suburbs.

Council report shows no need for radical planning changes in inner city Wellington
- Live Wellington - a liveable city by design
- The latest official assessment of Wellington’s housing needs shows sufficient capacity in Wellington’s inner city suburbs to meet future growth for the next 30 years, meaning the drive by the council to decimate inner city character areas is unwarranted and must be abandoned now, says LIVE WELLington.

A City for People
- Decades of inaction have meant house prices are out of control, while old rental properties rot out from underneath us. A whole generation of people are at risk of being forced out from the central city into new suburbs sprawling north, spending hours every day in traffic jams. We believe the Spatial Plan will allow Wellington to plan for the future so that new generations of Wellingtonians can share the city we love, and have a chance to live in a home that is affordable, accessible, healthy and warm.

Planning for Growth
- Planning for Growth includes the development of a Spatial Plan for Wellington City and the full review of the District Plan. The Spatial Plan will set out our 'blueprint' for where and how we want to direct growth across the city. Whereas the District Plan is the 'rule book' that sets the rules for building heights and what types of housing and activities are permitted and where. We know that without serious changes to current District Plan building rules, Wellington will be short between 4,600 and 12,000 dwellings by 2047, which means doing nothing is not an option.
