Why Aucklanders Should Be Nice To Boaties

Link sent to ww by John Burland

TVNZ recently released this ‘Back In The Day’ video from their archives, the year was 1982 & it shows architect Stephen Smythe’s ‘Vision for Auckland’s waterfront’. Nothing startling here, all one had to do at the time was visit any waterfront city in the world & see what they had done / were doing. The scary thing is it took us 30 years to make it happen & even then was only kicked of by hosting the defence of the America’s Cup. The city has a lot to thank the yachties for 🙂

Worth a look to see the waterfront of old.
