Rotorua Airport's terminal redevelopment has been nominated in New Zealand's most prestigious property awards for 2021.
Hosted by Property Council New Zealand, the Property Industry Awards celebrate excellence in design and innovation in the built environment.
The list of 2021 nominees has just been released with Rotorua Airport nominated in the Tourism & Leisure Property Award category for its full redevelopment of the airport terminal.
The two-year project, totalling $5.3 million, was carried out while the terminal continued to operate and proved to be more than just a refresh with significant seismic upgrades, the establishment of a business hub and collaboration with mana whenua to incorporate te reo Māori in the fabric of the overall redevelopment.
The new arrival and departure areas, a food and beverage experience with Terrace Airside and the recent additions of a parents' room and meeting room have all been well received by passengers and the wider community.
