TV studio tower to become apartments

Reporter Community News

Lower Hutt's inconic Avalon Studios tower is going to be converted into apartments.
Developer Ian Cassels is backing a $20m redevelopment of the Avalon Studios tower into a 68 unit apartment block.
Initially eight levels would be developed, each with five single and two double bedroom units. Another floor would be released later with 12 apartments.
While prices were yet to be finalised, single-bedroom units would be priced for first home buyers “in the $500,000s”.
