Oh, hello there... to my new favourite Wellington destination - a reinvigorated Band Rotunda. A spa and restaurant sound like just what the waterfront ordered. This is an awesome piece of news to end the year on. ? Kudos to developer Watson Group Ltd, who approached Council with a unique development proposal to revitalise the Band Rotunda site.? ? Preliminary works including earthquake strengthening and restoration of the site is scheduled to start in the new year.? ? Wellington City Mayor Tory Whanau says this is great news to end the year on.? ? “This has been a complicated process which has involved a lot of hard mahi from officers, ensuring they get the right balance with the site, with a focus on restoration, ensuring it’s a destination location, and making sure it’s resilient for future generations too.”? ? The landmark site was built in 1937, and has been closed since 2012 as it has required extensive strengthening and restoration work. The project is expected to be finished in 2027 to coincide with the 90th?anniversary of the bathing pavilion opening.? Hats off also to Iestyn Burke, Jon Williams and Sarah-Jane Still for your work on this one.
