Petone club invests $6.7m in business park

PETONE Working Men’s Club has spent $6.7 million buying a large block of industrial property that backs on to its Udy St premises. It is another big investment for the club, which is also determined to proceed with a $19m conference centre and hotel development in the face of opposition. Club president Barry Priest said the business park at 38-40 Bouverie St, opposite Petone’s Mega Mitre 10 store, was bought as a long-term investment and to protect the future of the club. ‘‘We’re 123 years old now – the 124th anniversary is coming up and we want to make sure we’re here for another 124 years,’’ Mr Priest said. Most of the property was tied up in long-term leases to tenants, including the Fisheries Ministry, Humes Pipeline Systems and Plumbing World. The property, which was returning a net income of $620,000 a year, was bought from the McCombie Family Trust. Read more →

Petone Working Men’s Club Developments Press Release

The Petone Working Men’s Club is to accelerate plans for a $19 million conference centre and hotel on its Udy Street site after getting the nod from members at a special meeting on Sunday the 11th April 2010. PWMC President Barry Priest says while several of the 176 members at the weekend meeting had reservations about the ambitious development, “it went through by a large majority”.

This will be a great benefit and fantastic community asset. Mr Priest said that if members gave it the sign-off at Sunday’s meeting, “we’ll be going forward asap” to get it underway.
