I want to put a question to the “town planners” and so-called experts in organising tourist events in Gisborne. Why have all of you ignored the most focal, vacant and ugly piece of land in the district?
I am going to leave out the old prison at Midway for somethingelse — the old railway station.
It has a number of existing buildings and plenty of parking with room for lots more to add at little cost.
Funnily enough, the rail line goes through the middle. What a great first stop!
Existing buildings and heaps of room for sellers and buyers — what a great place to have the farmers’ market.
I remember my father wanting to have no buildings on the seaward side of the beach along the existing road. He lost that argument but I think Gisborne lost a lot more.
