NZHPT Welcomes Shed 10 Retention

NZHPT Welcomes Shed 10 Retention

The New Zealand Historic Places Trust (NZHPT) has welcomed today’s decision to retain Shed 10 on Auckland’s Queen’s Wharf and looks forward to working with the Waterfront Development Agency over its future.

NZHPT Chief Executive Bruce Chapman thanked Auckland Regional Council (ARC) Chairman Mike Lee and said NZHPT was pleased to have been involved in the Queen’s Wharf discussions, with today’s decision “a significant and pragmatic result”.

“It is very pleasing that the Government and the ARC have agreed to retain a significant part of Auckland’s maritime heritage for future consideration,” Mr Chapman said.

“NZHPT is delighted we can now move on in time for the Rugby World Cup.”

Further comment would not be made until the NZHPT Board had seen full details of the agreement between the ARC and Government, Mr Chapman said
