The blessing of a newly-completed $35 million six-level luxury apartment building has marked a new chapter for Tauranga's CBD.

The Latitude Residences on Park St was officially opened Wednesday morning.Dozens of people attended a site blessing in front of the apartments with the city's mayor Tenby Powell and developer TYBI director Shannon Moyle cutting the red ribbon.

Designed by Ignite Architects, the six-level development includes 28 luxury freehold apartments with views of the Tauranga Harbour and Mount Maunganui.

Senior development manager from Veros Property, Craig McCormick, said the project received record-sales with 27 out of 28 apartments sold prior to its completion.

"This is an excellent outcome that supports a more compact city and provides an alternative housing choice in the area," he said.

"The blessing from Tamati of Ngāi Tamarāwaho completes the handover process and we wish all our purchasers all the best with their new apartments."

Special guest Powell said the scale and quality of the development was exactly what Tauranga deserved.

"We need to encourage and enable more such developments in downtown Tauranga to enable people to live in what will become one of New Zealand's most desirable suburbs."
