South Christchurch Library work begins
Construction of the new Library/Service Centre and
Learning Centre for South Christchurch has started. The
tender has gone to Mainzeal Property and Construction,
which began work on the site last week. The Beckenham
Service Centre building, which was on the site, has been
demolished, with services temporarily relocated to 148
Colombo Street. The new facility — including a service centre, library,
learning centre classrooms, and cafe — are planned to
open in June next year, says Council Project Manager Ian
McKenzie. When the Architecture Warren and Mahoneydesigned
complex is finished it will be among the most
environmentally friendly buildings in Christchurch — a
request made by the community during the Council’s
public consultation process. |
