We welcome thoughtful disagreement.
But we do (ir)regularly moderate comments -- and we *will* delete any with insulting or abusive language. Or if they're just inane or off topic. It’s okay to disagree, but pretend you’re having a drink in the living room with the person you’re disagreeing with. This includes me.
PS: Have the honesty and courage to use your real name. That gives added weight to any opinion.
Don't dis the Skytower.

Design yourself a house that looks like Hubbards cerial cartons and you'll be fast tracked through the red tape. Stear away from Weet-bix boxes though or the Mayor will surely be against you.
Lloydois, you said, "It's hardly distinguished but I'm struggling to think of another building in Auckland (public and large) that is."
ReplyDeleteHow about the Auckland University Old Arts Building and Clock Tower. That's one of my favourites -- and designed by one of Frank Lloyd Wrights draughtsmen's draughtsman too. ;^)
If only NZ had just one Frank Lloyd Wright, things would be different...
