Wellington Scoop

    • Christmas seems to be a time for demolition – when most people are too distracted to be concerned about what their city is losing. This demolition opposite the Basin Reserve has just been carried out for the NZ Transport Agency, in preparation for the flyover that it wants to impose on the neighbourhood. In Brooklyn, this landmark building will soon be gone. No one wanted to strengthen it.
