$10million in exchange for demolition?
- Wellington Scoop
- Wealthy developer Mark Dunatschik has offered to pay $5m to help strengthen St Gerard’s, and another $5m to help strengthen St Mary of the Angel’s. But there’s a condition. He’ll write the cheques only if he’s allowed to demolish the heritage Harcourts Building in Lambton Quay.

A really positive earthquake strengthening story of a heritage building
- Iona Pannett
- This made me smile today, a great story in The Dom talking about the restoration of the substation on Kate Sheppard Place which is earthquake prone. A great example of how our precious heritage can be strengthened for its next life. Photo courtesy of The Dominion Post
