Dilworth Building Grant Aided Repairs

Repairs are well underway to the Dilworth Building at the lower end of Queen Street, central Auckland. This important heritage building was erected in 1925-27 as a high-quality concrete structure with distinctive Portland stone facings, steel casement windows and decorative bronze spandrel panels. It is a significant feature of the Auckland streetscape and is contemporaneous with other Gummer and Ford landmark developments of the same period.

Picture of the Month

The Back Cottage

This cottage was part of the Te Apiti Station formed in 1853 at Kairakau Beach, near Waipawa, south of the Hawkes Bay. Access to the station was only by sea and the “back” cottage was so named as it was the furtherest house on the station from the ocean.
