Woolworths, Newton
This project, for Progressive Enterprises, consists of a new 4500sqm supermarket development, together with associated additional retail and two levels of sub grade parking. The project was challenging since it occupies a whole city block of Newtown which is an inner fringe suburb of central Wellington.
Newtown is a historic suburb and this fact required a particularly careful design approach since the building faces small to medium scale streets on three sides. The project received endorsement from the Wellington Urban Design Panel.
