Dunedin City Council’s ‘’Totally Georgeous’’ project lead, Glen Hazelton, described the plan as a distinctly Dunedin design with a mana whenua framework.
In 2021, the contentious decision to turn George St one-way allowed for one half of the road to be turned into productive space, while retaining the same number of car parks.
The design of that space was revealed on Wednesday. At a budget of $28.2 million, the three blocks in the retail quarter will have their own theme.
See some artist's impressions below (plus a photo of current George St) and read more about the new plan www.stuff.co.nz....

Originally named Lexiko and then Criss-Cross Words, Alfred Mosher Butts eventually settled on the name Scrabble. The amateur artist and unemployed architect developed the word game in the midst of the depression. Still, it wasn’t until 1948, a final name change and a trademark that Butts finally began to produce the game.

Jarrod Hodson installed the narrow-gauge railway across the backyard of his home, in the suburb of Ravensbourne, which overlooks the Otago Harbour and a busy railway line.
His railway line includes Manapouri St Station – named after his street.
'’I’ve done some pretty crazy things in my life ... but this is how I roll to be honest,” Hodson said. Continue reading here.

A week on from their decision, Woof! co-owners Josh Thomas and Dudley Benson have seen a record number of patrons.
Thomas and Benson said their bar and eatery served a diverse community, most of whom were concerned with easing Covid-19 restrictions.
From April 4, amid declining Covid-19 cases overall, businesses like theirs no longer needed to see a vaccine pass before allowing people to dine-in.
In Dunedin, however, cases haven't been declining. After a survey of patrons, the co-owners decided they would keep the vaccine pass system for the time being, and would review it week to week.
The decision sparked the ire of online trolls, whose abuse became increasingly homophobic once news reached the United States, Benson wrote on Twitter.
“Many seemed threatened by my nail polish.”
In a separate tweet, Benson said of the 1232 groups the business had welcomed since April 4, only one person did not want to show a vaccine pass.
“They politely moved on,” he said.
The abuse continued online after Benson decided to contact the people leaving fake one-star reviews, “to hold them [to] account”.
Some commenters took issue with Benson contacting the people leaving fake reviews, even though the reviews lowered the bar's rank online, adding to the abuse.
Google has since removed several of the fake one-star reviews, including some five-star reviews supporters made to try and balance the reviews.
Thomas and Benson declined to speak to Stuff, but gave permission to use information they published on Twitter.
Meanwhile, case numbers in Otago and Southland had surpassed worst case predictions, according to modelling provided to the Southern District Health Board.
On Monday, there were 7847 active Covid-19 cases in the Southern region – the second-highest in the country by district health board area, behind Canterbury on 11,683.
