Is housing intensification good for Lower Hutt?
Neighbours in Raukawa St, Stokes Valley, have raised the alarm over housing developments that will add 110 dwellings to the dead-end street that has fewer than 100 houses on it.
Development is changing Lower Hutt but not everybody thinks it is a good idea.
What do you think? Do we need more intensification?

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
