More than 2ha of prime Napier hills real estate vacant for 18 years and once targeted for a 61-unit residential development is now set to become the site of two family homes. The site is the 2.2ha 46-50 Napier Tce former home of Hukarere Girls College, which has expansive views over the city of Napier and Marine Pde towards Cape Kidnappers.
Vacated by the school in 2003 amid a move to a property once a Department of Social Welfare boys home near Eskdale, the historic buildings were demolished and the site bought by investors planning the residential development, which was to have been known as Hukarere Heights.
