150 bedrooms – recycling the flats
- Wellington Scoop
- The Architectural Centre has written to the Minister for Housing Chris Bishop giving reasons for the retention and refurbishment of the Gordon Wilson Memorial Apartments on the Terrace. It says: “We acknowledge this is a critical time in the building’s future with your pending decision on whether to retain its heritage listing. Your decision will impact its retention.” The letter gives these reasons why the building should be retained and re-used.

Destroying our past
- Wellington Scoop
- Heritage is contested by many and loved by others. The Mayor and Councillor McNulty want it as just a political whim. They’ve written a letter to RMA Reform Minister Chris Bishop asking for the power to remove heritage buildings from district plan rules by a simple Council majority vote. The letter says this request is “on behalf of the Wellington City Council,” though it was never discussed by councillors.
