Hamilton tourist attraction!
I've been thinking of this idea for a while now and have discussed it with several people who have all sorts of interesting ideas for it, they're all pretty enthusiastic about the concept. Hamilton is in a prime location for tourists passing through from Auckland to Rotorua and Taupo/Ruapehu - many stop at the Hamilton gardens but besides that there isn't much other reason for them to stay around Hamilton [compared to places like Rotorua and the south island], most of them simply pass through. The idea I have could start small and grow from there - or with the right backing could be done once properly and start big and provide a lot of jobs and income for Hamilton - our slice of the tourist industry which is constantly growing and brings people from overseas wanting to spend their money on something interesting. It could include motels nearby for people to stay longer plus a restaurant and all the associated side-businesses that go with tourist attractions [children's play areas, fitness park etc.]. Maybe even a campground thereby providing something for bored campers to do. Part of the project would cater to the movie industry. Most of it would be linked with camera monitors [with permission from participants] to screens in the restaurant providing interesting entertainment for those who don't want to participate but just want something to do for the day.
It will also be educational and provide a learning experience for those in various aspects of photography, from the average person interested in knowing a little more to working professionals [yes, many of them still have things to learn :) ] It could also be used as a wedding venue or for other functions as it would include themed rooms, medieval, Victorian, etc. as well as a room for high speed photography, a large tank for underwater photoshoots from the side without getting your gear wet, various structures for interesting perspective photos, green screen rooms, places for people to display their work etc. etc.
I couldn't do this [financially] on my own and wouldn't mind sharing all the plans and ideas with someone prepared to take on a project[investment] like this.
People are always looking for something interesting and new to do, who wants to join in on the project?
Bargain or big risk? Crown puts Huntly subsidence home on the market
A Crown-owned subsidence property has come on the market, but whether potential buyers reckon it’s a bargain or risky buy is yet to be seen.
While some might view the Huntly east property as a bargain, Huntly real estate agents reckoned living on top of the mining zone makes some buyers nervous they’re going to “just sink one day”. Although, the agents are fairly confident the area is safe.
