Apartments to help rejuvenate struggling Lower Hutt CBD

Reporter Community News

The conversion of a former commercial building into 40 new apartments could be a much-needed shot in the arm for Lower Hutt’s struggling CBD.
Developer Kevin Melville said the $15 million project, alongside other apartment complexes, would establish a new inner-city community that would help drive business in the central city.
The units will be available in about 14 months.
Wellington developer Ian Cassels is also working on a major development nearby featuring a mix of apartments and retail.
Hutt City Council estimates 9606 new houses will be needed to be built in the city by 2047 to keep up with population growth.
