The Fale Malae Trust is hoping the Wellington City Council will approve its new preferred site of Frank Kitts Park for a multi-purpose Pacific cultural centre.
The Fale Malae Trust plans to build an iconic, nationally significant building that will be a focal point for all New Zealanders to gather, learn and celebrate the contribution that Pasifika arts, cultures, and histories make to New Zealand's national identity.
There was a strong Pacific presence at the Wellington City Council chambers meeting as trust chair Adrian Orr updated councillors and supporters.
He said that the Trust's preferred site is now Frank Kitts Park, on Wellington's waterfront.
