I know this has been discussed before but I can’t find the thread. What’s the plan for this site?  |

A Hotel for rich chinese people is one I've heard. Another was a park for all the apartment dwellers as there are none in the city nor is there any huge open space 100m away called Victoria Park or a short bike, ebike of curse, ride to Orakei. Also heard apartments and an Orams expansion. I'm picking apartments. Now I look at that I should have just posted 'buggered if I know'  |

Maybe lots of cafes at $7.50 per latte.
Although given the barren & desolate feeling of that part of town (it used to be buzzing with boat people and office workers but both are now endangered species) I agree it’s most likely to be apartments for sad & lonely professional singles who only ‘socialise’ online.

Thought it eas to be apartment/office blocks
Remember the old days in the 60/70/80s baileys sheds for haul outs/vossers shipping building,cement ship and small oil ships coming in,used to house westhaven fuel jetty and devonport ferries. Had a wonderful maritime smell. Bit like the old lighterbasin with the fishing boats. (The viaduct) Bridge was up from midday saturday to monday morning and we sail from devonport across and drift through the bridge in 'P"s and Moths. Think one had :zeddie"

Just stayed in the marina for 3 days last week prior to the coastal . It’s a retirement development , apartments in the hardstand area and lowrise block/s directly across the road for the less wealthy . Hardstand apartments come with a marina berth I think . Developers are sailors of some repute and have been kind enough to leave a tiny brick building for Johnny wrays coffee to continue operating out of which made our stay much more tolerable . www.northbrook.co.nz/lifestyle |

How does a wine & whiskey library work?
I can understand checking out a bottle, but how to you check it back in?
(I'm assuming peeing in it isn't the done thing)
