Work on planned Lyttelton development Collett's Corner gearing up again

Jake Kenny Reporter from Community News

A “pioneering” Lyttelton development will restart crowdfunding later this month after a coronavirus-induced hiatus.

Collett’s Corner will seek public investment from September 23 – two days after opening to current shareholders. The project needs to raise $800,000 to $1.4 million, with shares costing $120 each.

The $14m three-storey, mixed-use development – planned for a 974-square-metre site on the corner of London and Oxford streets – will feature a wellness centre, hospitality outlets and shops on the ground floor, and 20 privately-owned apartments above.

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
