DescriptionThis picture was printed in the July 13, 2005 'Leader'.
It was on land which had been marketed by the council, who first bought it in July 1993 for a cultural centre. In 2005 it was bought by Upper Hutt Retail Holdings Ltd; Peter Savage, 'an established property developer with the City Living Group and Devon Homes Holdings'. He was awaiting planning approval. Construction should start early in 2006, with opening in July.
The 2000-square-metre project would offer three or four outlets between 500 and 900 square metres; Briscoes, Rebel Sports and Big Save Furniture were being suggested, and would be new to Upper Hutt.
The December 14 'Leader' reported that the nature of the proposed (un-named) tenants had not been 'suitable or conducive to the council and what it had wanted to achieve there, sol the land had reverted to the council.
