110 Featherson Street
The original eight-storey building at 110 Featherston Street was built in 1917 by James Fletcher for the Dominion Farmers Institute. It was then partly demolished, extended, strengthened and combined with a new nine-storey structure in 1985.
The two structures are connected by an attractive central atrium and the historic façade is part of the original building. It is registered as a category II with Historic Places and is listed in the heritage chapter.
The property has some ground floor retail, a mezzanine floor, seven levels of office space and basement parking. The building is serviced by three lifts, with one descending to the basement. The lift plant room and other service facilities are located on the roof. Two new chillers were installed and commissioned in October 2017.
The building has retail frontage to Featherston Street, the main entrance lobby is also on Featherston Street with secondary access for servicing, vehicle and pedestrian access from Maginnity Street. The office floors average approximately 1,150sqm of net lettable area with lifts, stairs, toilets, and service core located towards the southern side of the building. The space is carpeted and air conditioned with excellent natural light augmented by lighting recessed in suspended ceiling tiles.

Previously developed.
A lot of Wellington's commercial buildings have been developed or managed by us over the years. Below are just a few of what we consider to be our stand-outs: Ones that we are particularly proud of, to this day.
Conservation House
The Department of Conservation wanted an environmentally friendly building - one which would testify to its commitment to the value of conservation. Conservation House won the Sustainable Building Award at the 2006 Govt3 Awards for its new offices in the former Hoyts movie theatre complex on Manners Street in central Wellington. At the time, it was recognised as one of the most environmentally- friendly office buildings in New Zealand.
We sought to recreate, rather than recycle, a disused cinema complex, turning it into an enhanced state-of-the-art ‘green’ building. It utilises the most advanced sustainable ventilation and energy-saving strategies, such as replacing conventional air conditioning high highly efficient, noiseless, active chilled beams- the first such use in Australasia.
Sustainability is paramount, even during construction, when waste was sorted on site and minimised.
DESIGN FEATURES IN BRIEF:
Active chilled beam air conditioning system.
Centralised atrium providing natural light and air flow.
Rainwater collection and recirculation to water plants and flush toilets.
Double-layer glass façade to allow natural air-flow, air conditioning or mixed-mode operation.
Daylight dimming and motion sensors combine to give an energy-efficient lighting system.
Sustainable internal fittings, including Ontera carpet tiles for easy replacement of individual tiles as needed.
Heat pump water system
PVC-free roller blinds.
Low VOC formaldehyde materials.
Xero Building
We redeveloped the old Manthel Motors building (which had also been used as a World War II storehouse before being converted to offices in 1990) into Wellington’s first fabric covered office block. Located on the corner of Wakefield and Taranaki Street, the now 5-storey block is home to software company, Xero.
The Wellington Company has a large focus in the restoration of heritage-listed buildings. It was important to Ian Cassels to keep the two-storey Manthel Motors façade at the front of the building, with the focus being on the heritage part during the day, and the newly constructed three stories above at night.
Read more about this heritage/new build project and what it achieved for Xero.
Spark Central
Then known as Telecom House, we acquired the property in 1999 for $10M, spent $100M on a five-star green design rating, with the finished project including a 12-storey refurbished heritage building and a new 11-storey office tower that attracted a rateable value of $188m just before it was sold for a Wellington record price, just shy of $200m.
