'I'm very optimistic': Hamilton Mayor 'fully on board' with skyscraper proposal
A proposed new hotel set on the banks of the Waikato River could be Hamilton's first skyscraper standing at 25 storeys high.
Kiwi high-rise developer Templeton Group presented the preliminary design for the Victoria Street Tower to Hamilton City Council on Thursday.
Hamilton Mayor Tim Macindoe told Andrew Dickens he is 'fully on board' with the development.
"There are all sorts of wonderful things happening in our city, and we need these beds and we need a, a top-quality hotel and I think this is really going to deliver in a spectacular way."
