Billion dollar 'sweet spot'
Morning neighbours,
A number of significant infrastructure projects in and around Hamilton are aligning to deliver a massive boost to the city and region.
Hamilton East list MP Jamie Strange even predicted the city will overtake both Wellington and Christchurch to become the country's second biggest city in 30 years.
Dallas Fisher, chair of regional economic development agency Te Waka, said he knew of one major Waikato construction company that had 37 projects in the works.
The region is "ready to pop".

He went on camping holidays with his parents, and later, took his own kids.
“Camping’s been in my blood.”
