A Singaporean property development company’s dusted ff plans for a new hotel on Queenstown’s Shotover Street.
Well Smart Investment Holding lodged a resource consent application in 2018 for a 260-room, nine-level building stepping up to Man St.
It later withdrew the proposal, but now it’s lodged a scaled-back version, with 149 rooms on eight levels, which fits within building limits under the proposed district plan.
Subject to approval, construction will begin ‘‘as soon as possible’’, the application says.
A modular construction method will be employed in which modules are fitted out off-site before being trucked to the site and installed.
