Could Carterton be the new Melbourne?
Who needs to pop across the ditch to Melbourne when you can enjoy Carterton?
Carterton Mayor Greg Lang has a vision of a creating a “Mini Melbourne”
in the central Wairarapa service town. Developers had already started building apartment complexes just in behind the High St, with plans for Melbourne-like laneways and artisan enclaves.
Comparisons between in the central Wairarapa service town and Australia’s ‘Garden City’ may seem farcical, but the Carterton mayor’s vision has merit, according to local business owners.
Do you think his idea is realistic?
