The new tower is located within the Lyall Bay shopping centre [also owned by the airport company]. The existing tower is a couple of streets away in a residential suburb.
Anyway, it looks like an architect got paid a lot of money to design this one, as it appears to lean into the prevailing northerly winds and away from the bitterly cold southerlies!
The pictures were taken from the carpark of the shopping centre. The red sign at the bottom is actually a shopping trolley return point :-)

I was a little wary of this when the plans were first shown, but it's actually come up quite nicely!
Yeah, the building looks ok. Still not sure about the location, but oh well! :-)
Don't like it.
never did. Probably never will.
Great photo though
