Poll: Do you think these homes should have heritage protection?
The row of 1950s flat-roofed wooden duplexes in Pinfold Ave are gems of Kiwi historic house design needing protection, say the planning boffins.
But some of those who live in them just want a house that’s less ‘worn’ - and their state landlord agrees, saying removing their protection will help build more homes.

Poll: Should we ditch daylight saving? 🕰️
First introduced in New Zealand in 1927 with the passing of the Summer Time Act, it's what we know as 'Daylight Saving' and this year it ends on the first Sunday in April.
While we do get to sleep in this time around, some people would like to scrap the clock tinkering for good.
And why? Some evidence suggests the time changes are bad for our health as they mess with sleep patterns leading to short-term fatigue and affecting mood. Meanwhile the hour change is frustrating for farmers and a nightmare for getting the littlies to sleep. But what's your take?
-
36.1% Yes - get rid of the clock changes
-
63.2% No, I enjoy it
-
0.6% Other - I'll share below
