Britomart: The Story by Carroll du Chateau

The reinvention of Auckland’s historic waterfront precinct

Good condition with minimal wear to the edges and minor visible wear to the spine. Some marks on cover. Pages excellent.

Carroll du Chateau tells the story of Britomart’s first decade of redevelopment, from threatened demolition to the restoration and renewal of a significant Auckland waterfront district. Through accounts from the people involved, photographs and architectural detail, the book follows the decisions, challenges and unexpected discoveries behind the project. It records how historic buildings became part of a working urban neighbourhood and offers a visual portrait of change in the heart of the city. Peter Cooper contributes the introduction.
