2. Rented Buildings and Proper Architecture.

Season 1 | Episode 2
18m | Sep 23, 2021

This episode involves rented buildings like Caluzzi and The Thirsty Dog. This episode also includes proper architecture, like Krd’s Lighthouse Apartments by Leuschke Group Architects. Proper architecture is not the same as a common building, it’s more elite than that.

Further Notes :

  • This podcast references a building boom in Queen Street during the 1970’s, when it is more accurate to say that the demolishing of heritage buildings was happening in the 1980’s. Watch this documentary for context. https://www.nzonscreen.com/title/kaleidoscope-town-planning-1985 
  • The reference to Chloë is not a dig at the Greens, but rather a dig at people like me who can get on board with a lot of left leaning intentions, maybe without the action to back them. “I, Gabi Maffey, am actually so progressive that I eat the left arm of the tiny teddy first.”
