One of my main tasks whilst at Housing New Zealand under the previous National government was to develop land owned by the crown into the mixed tenure model where public, private and community housing intermixed. Pepper potting social housing in a single apartment building.
A difficult idealistic solution that via a simple PPP a brave development partner took on and did a great job.
399 Manchester Street, Christchurch was the first one. Michael Butler was my team SDM on this one, nailing the project into delivery.
Does anyone know how the property and the pepper potting gets on now almost ten years later?
