Collett's Corner

Camia from Lyttelton

Kia ora koutou

Are you curious to know what is happening on Collett's Corner? The architects are presenting early stage plans for local feedback Oct 30th at the Lyttelton Community Board Room (25 Canterbury St).

The purpose of this design workshop is two fold: the designers will walk the audience through the concept plans and answer questions; and they will host a workshop to brainstorm ideas for the design of the courtyard.

This meeting is also for to people who dream of owning their own business in Lyttelton, it is a good time to attend and ask questions about the building. The design is at the stage where prospective tenants can input on the plans and shape the building to meet their business needs.

The building will have a restaurant, hot baths, shops, a coworking space, apart-hotel, cinema and bar. If you would like to run one of these businesses please come and if you can't make it to the meeting please get in touch, we would like to meet with you.

Response to regifting presents

Gordon from Halswell

My mind tends to wander:
I do not see any problem with regifting it back to the person who gave it, they obviously liked it. In fact, that might work out well as you buy the present you want, then gift it to someone you know who will gift it back.
Perfect, no decision needs to be made about Xmas presents
