Getting rid of character
- Wellington Scoop
- Most Wellington campaigners in recent decades have fought to save the city’s unique character. So it was unusual to have a group saying it was delighted and stoked by the city council decision to reduce the city’s character areas. If the plan gets ministerial approval next month, it will however not be the first time that the council has presided over the destruction of character areas and streetscapes. Think of the regime of mayor Michael Fowler. An architect, he presided over the demolition of much of Lambton Quay’s heritage buildings.
