      <title>Te Ngākau Precinct Development Plan consultation</title>
      <link>https://www.letstalk.wellington.govt.nz/te-ngakau-plan</link>
      <description>Wellingtonians have told us they want a city that is vibrant, resilient, and creative, so we’re investing in the improvements that our city needs to flourish.&#xD;
&#xD;
Right now, Wellington is in a period of transition, as we upgrade our infrastructure to create a city where people and nature thrive.&#xD;
&#xD;
One of the most important projects is the revitalisation of the heart of our city, the precinct around Te Ngākau Civic Square. Te Ngākau Civic Precinct is a large area of land near the waterfront in central Wellington, approximately 3.36 hectares (33,600sqm). The precinct is home to some of our most important cultural, creative, and civic functions such as Te Matapihi Central Library, Wellington Town Hall and City Gallery.&#xD;
&#xD;
When all the work in Te Ngākau is finished, it will be a place that we can all be proud of – full of creativity, culture, and excitement, both day and night.</description>
