Neighbourhood Newsletter for Apartment Dwellers - "Vertical Voice"
Hey neighbours Vertical Voice is an emailed monthly newsletter, with a range of local, or what we describe as "neighbourhood-level" information. Full of links for those who want to delve a little deeper into an item, this newsletter usually contains updates on local projects, a bit of local history, apartment life, new community classes, local community groups, artworks and issues relating to our life in the city centre.
The February edition is coming out soon, so if you want to sign on then send an email to : vertical@acommunity.nz (It's Mailchimp so easy enough to unsubscribe if you find it is not for you.)
Written by locals for locals and supported by the Aaiotanga Community Space in Emily Place and the Waitemata Local Board.
