Ngāi Tahu Property and ACC break ground on state-of-the-art building

Nicole Reporter from Dunedin News

A joint venture between Ngāi Tahu Property and ACC will transform a car park on a historic Dunedin street into a state-of-the-art building.

The Dowling St site was officially blessed with a karakia and sod turning on Tuesday morning.

The building is a 50:50 joint venture between Ngāi Tahu Property and the ACC investment yeam, and will feature 8000 square metres of office space.

As part of the deal, the Dunedin City Council sold the car park – which had been previously linked to other potential developments – to Ngāi Tahu Property for $3 million.

The new building is expected to be completed by early 2024.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.

This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.

When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
