The changes in the CBD

Managing Director from TDRealty Ltd MREINZ

Last week I attended a meeting where TCC spoke of all the developments currently underway in the CBD. This changed my negative opinion of the city centre. Perhaps they could do some marketing around this to tell us about the incredible transformations that are underway.
There's the new Civic Centre, Museum, Devonport Business Block; the massive move of businesses into the CBD such as HOBEC Law; all 400 Council Employees into the one building; new vibrant recreational spaces; the Farmers Building Apartments and Shops....
BUT, gone are the days of parking right in front of the store we want. We need to adjust to walking - imagine Auckland, Wellington or Hamilton City Centres and then it helps to get our heads around this one I reckon.
The plans we saw convinced me that by this coming Xmas we will begin to see the positive results of these projects. And, the majority of the projects can not be reversed by the new incoming Council.
I admit my grumbling mind is changed and I'm so grateful that my friends in Business in the City Centre will have a strong chance of thriving again.
