Practice: Peddle Thorp & Montgomery

The landmark building by Peddle Thorp & Montgomery features a 232 room 'four star' hotel which is now run by the InterContinental Group. It also houses twelve floors of quality office space of some 10,000m². The project has a floor area of 42,000m², cost $90 million to build and won the Wellington Owner's Building & Managers Award in the early 1990's.
The building is a warmly regarded landmark in the central city with the InterContinental still regarded as the premier hotel in Wellington.
