Piha's 'robot llama' surf tower shortlisted for international award
Kia ora neighbours, a new lifeguard watchtower at Piha Beach has been shortlisted for an international architecture award.

The World Architecture Festival is the world’s largest festival and live awards competition dedicated to architectural excellence across the globe, according to its website.
