Timelapse video has been released of the construction of Wellington’s newest waterfront building.

The 3800-square-metre Bell Gully building, built by Willis Bond, on the waterfront just south of the railway station was officially opened on Thursday by Wellington Central MP and deputy Prime Minister Grant Robertson.

“Delivering a brand new, fully leased building post-pandemic is a testament to the strong demand for the right workspace in the right place,” Willis Bond development managing director David McGuinness said.
