      <title>Losing our heart</title>
      <link>https://wellington.scoop.co.nz/?p=141279</link>
      <description>Have I got this right? The Wellington City Council’s draft District Plan is proposing to remove the heritage listing protection of the heart of the city – Te Ngakau/Civic Centre, which is listed as a heritage area in the current District Plan. There’s also no regard for legal protection of the city’s two waterfront parks.</description>

      <title>Keeping, not demolishing, the Civic Square buildings</title>
      <link>http://wellington.scoop.co.nz/?p=136509</link>
      <description>When I attended the recent Civic Trust seminar about the future of Te Ngākau Civic Square, the thing that surprised me the most was hearing the renowned architect Gordon Moller call for the retention and adaptive reuse of the Municipal Office Building (MOB) and Civic Administration Building (CAB) rather than have them demolished – as seems likely.</description>

      <title>The case for moving the Library</title>
      <link>http://wellington.scoop.co.nz/?p=131755</link>
      <description>The Ian Athfield designed Wellington Central Library that was built in 1991 was placed just a stone’s throw, and a quarter turn around the square, from the 1940 Centennial Library building that it replaced. That building continues to provide great service as the City Gallery.</description>
