Planned developments
Keeping our communities informed is very important to us. The sites below are in the early planning stages and our Stakeholder Relationship Managers will keep you up to date with our plans as they progress.
Drop-in session
- Thursday 25 March 2021, 4-6pm, Kilbirnie Library foyer, 101 Kilbirnie Crescent
Please call in any time to our community drop-in session to learn about changes to the initial design for these homes, ask questions, and give us feedback. We look forward to seeing you.
We are planning to build 80 new homes at 619-631 Evans Bay Parade:
- In July 2020 we shared our initial plans to build 60 homes in three and four-storey buildings, and received feedback from the community and stakeholders.
- Considering the positive feedback received and the high demand in Wellington for more warm, dry and modern homes, we have increased the number of homes planned to be built from 60 to 80.
- There would be 36 one-bedroom and 40 two-bedroom apartments and 4 four-bedroom townhouses.
-
The apartments will be in 6 four and five-storey buildings, with lifts in each apartment block.
View from Evans Bay Parade entrance
- Thirty of the apartments will be fully accessible, and the other 46 apartments will have accessible bathrooms.
- The apartments would be most suited to older people, those with mobility needs, couples and small families.
- All 80 homes will be fully insulated with double glazing, carpets and curtains.
- 30 parking spaces will be provided, including accessible parking.
- There would be a community green space, outdoor seating, raised planter boxes and low maintenance planting.
- There would also be a communal BBQ, laundry room and washing lines.
- The new homes will replace 20 three-bedroom homes built in the 1950s, and which aren’t up to new warm and healthy homes standards.
Next steps
- Community drop-in session, Thursday 25 March 2021, 4-6pm at Kilbirnie Library
- We are seeking feedback ahead of applying for resource consent in April/May 2021.
- Building could start in 2022, with completion in 2023.

To help meet the high demand for housing, we’re looking at redeveloping some of our existing properties in Johnsonville.
We’ll be replacing some older state homes on large sections with a greater number and variety of modern, warm and healthy homes.
The homes will:
- Be fully insulated, double glazed, with carpets and curtains
- Be mostly two-storey
- Have an outside garden, deck or balcony area and off-street parking
- Be most suited to couples and small and large families
Drop-in sessions
In February 2021 we shared our plans with neighbours, stakeholders and the wider community in two drop-in session where people could find out more about the work we are doing, meet the team, ask questions and give us feedback. A summary of the session will be available soon.
Next steps
All feedback will be considered ahead of submitting resource consent applications to Wellington City Council in the coming weeks and months. Once consented building work could start on some of the sites from mid-late 2021, with completion on some from late 2022.
We are also continuing to investigate more redevelopment opportunities at some of our other Johnsonville properties.
We will keep people updated on progress with these and any future redevelopments.
