The Auckland City Council has confirmed it will contribute $2 million towards the $8 million memorial to Sir Peter Blake at the National Maritime Museum on the waterfront.
The first images of the scaled-down memorial show the Princes Wharf side of the museum, pushed out at its northern end and largely wrapped in translucent panels.
The Government is giving $2.5 million, leaving the museum, under an agreement with Te Papa, having to find the other $3.5 million.
