So we ended up doing a cycling trip to the Empire Cinema in Island Bay to see Encanto Reo Māori. Because the cycleway connection in Berhampore is only half built, we took a short-cut from our home in Berhampore to get to the Parade. The kids were very keen, as they always are, to get their “bikes on the road.” These streets from Adelaide Road in Berhampore to the Parade in Island Bay, Tapu te Ranga, are another group of city streets built above waterways. The Pae Kawakawa stream starts near Macalister Park and runs along these roads with feeder streams in Mornington and Southgate as well. cycle-lanes cycling islandbay transport sport places media Sat, 28 Sep 2024 00:00:00 GMT https://wellington.scoop.co.nz/?p=164088 Wellington Scoop 2024-09-28T00:00:00Z -41.3322495 174.7716525 Island Bay, Wellington, Wellington City, Wellington, New Zealand/Aotearoa https://www.salient.org.nz/post/metlink-still-doesn-t-like-%C5%8Dwhiro-bay-or-te-reo While Metlink reports an overall 79% satisfaction with its public transport service, public transport advocacy group Better Buses Ōwhiro Bay (BBŌW) argues their suburb is being left behind.

During off-peak times, it takes two buses and over 45 minutes to get from Ōwhiro Bay to the city centre. The suburb is disproportionately affected by bus cancellations. Its residents are fed up. Now, they’ve taken matters into their own hands, writing a twenty-thousand-word report to prove their own experience. Jack Graham and Arunan Noble are both Ōwhiro Bay residents and, in the spirit of full disclosure, friends of the author. They both live with their parents while studying at VUW.

On today’s menu we’re going to take a trip to the famous Cuba Street, well known to any Wellingtonian as the street for excellent food and creative expression. Sadly, Covid-19 saw the closure of many iconic Cuba Street restaurants, and only a few new ones have popped up in their place in the following years. However, we can contribute to making Cuba Street the same vibrant, cultural-mixing glass of culinary excellence it once was by taking to the streets, and filling our tummies. cubastreet food places media vuw education Sun, 28 Apr 2024 00:00:00 GMT https://www.salient.org.nz/post/cuba-street-meal-steals Salient 2024-04-28T00:00:00Z -41.2937917 174.7754336 Cuba Street, Te Aro, Wellington, Wellington City, Wellington, 6011, New Zealand https://wellington.scoop.co.nz/?p=159829 Sixteen years ago, the Wellington city council said it didn’t want to have a large empty building site in Mt Cook.

Organised by (unsuccessful) Lambton Ward candidate and famed Kaffee Eis creamslinger, Karl Tiefenbacher, the “Park It” campaign hinges itself on business owners arguing that losing the 20 car parks will make a significant impact on their profit margins. “The thing to remember is that a lot of people walk here, obviously, and I get stupid statements like, ‘cars don’t spend money, people do’, but cars don’t drive themselves either, so every car brings an extra person to Cuba St,” he told Salient. “You know, we’re selling a low cost product, and we need a lot of turnover, so if we lose something like 10% of our business [by having no car parks], that’s enough to send us under.” cubastreet parking places transport media vuw education Sun, 14 Apr 2024 00:00:00 GMT https://www.salient.org.nz/post/more-pedestrians-on-cuba-st-will-destroy-business-say-campaigners Salient 2024-04-14T00:00:00Z -41.2937917 174.7754336 Cuba Street, Te Aro, Wellington, Wellington City, Wellington, 6011, New Zealand https://www.salient.org.nz/post/review-after-the-storm Emma Salzano's After the Storm was originally a project created at Te Auaha, then went through a development season as a Lift-Off piece, and now it's making its world premiere at the New Zealand Fringe Festival. And let me tell you, I'm thrilled that it's back. It's been quite some time since I've seen a play that has genuinely touched me. And I don't say this to be disrespectful, but perhaps to acknowledge my own desensitisation towards such things. After the Storm changed that. Maybe I'm just a sucker for a good love story. But this play is more than just a romance; at its core, it's about grief and how our emotions shape our lives. The story takes place in the 1930s and follows a group of Italian immigrants who leave their volcanic island of Stromboli and start anew on the shores of Island Bay. islandbay reviews theatre places performingarts media vuw education Wed, 28 Feb 2024 00:00:00 GMT https://www.salient.org.nz/post/review-after-the-storm Salient 2024-02-28T00:00:00Z -41.29174605 174.775929404921 Te Auaha, Dixon Street, Te Aro, Wellington, Wellington City, Wellington, 6040, New Zealand https://capitalmag.co.nz/2023/12/18/knock-on-wood/ From native wood floorboards to hidden craftsmanship, Orane and Olivier got lucky when they renovated their weatherboard cottage.
