The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Construction of a new state housing area, featuring landscaped sections and balconies, is due to begin in Porirua early next year. Porirua City Council has granted Housing New Zealand resource consent to develop 53 two-storey dwellings, ranging in size between one and five bedrooms, in eastern Porirua’s Castor Loop area on a plot that has been empty for nine years.
