Artist's impression of Courtenay Place at night
Once complete, Courtenay Place will be more open and a much more attractive destination, drawing visitors and locals alike to the area.
Hospitality businesses will be able to use new flexible dining areas, giving them more space to share their excellent food and drink with Wellingtonians and visitors.
We know loading zones are critical for business, so we’re significantly increasing the total amount of space dedicated to them, from the current 151.5 metres to a new 238 metres, located on Courtenay Place itself as well as near the intersections with Cambridge Tce, Blair St, Allen St, Tory St and Taranaki St.
