The Government will embark on the Wellington region s biggest housing project in decades, building and redeveloping thousands of homes in Porirua. First published in November 2018.
The keys to 29 newly-built state homes are set to be handed over to tenants in Porirua, as part of Kāinga Ora’s Castor Cres development in Cannons Creek. Ngāti Toa Rangatira representatives formally blessed the homes on Monday morning, with Mana MP Barbara Edmonds saying their construction goes some way to addressing decades of “under-building” in the city.
