The Invercargill City Centre Heritage Strategy was created to help guide future City Centre heritage decisions and initiatives. It was drafted in consultation with Heritage New Zealand Pouhere Taonga, local heritage trusts and interest groups, and heritage property owners.
The strategy acknowledges the value heritage brings to our City Centre and seeks to provide tools and incentives to reach the following goals:
- A vibrant, sustainable, and active City Centre where heritage is highly valued.
- Key heritage resources within the City Centre are, if practicable, actively utilized, creating positive community and economic outcomes.
- New development and adaptive re-use projects respect our City’s heritage context.
- Heritage values and character of our City Centre are celebrated and protected.
