A heritage advocate - Denis Harwood - is yet to receive a cent for two central Christchurch properties the Crown took from him using emergency rebuild powers nearly eight years ago.
That is despite a government minister rubber-stamping a compensation package worth more than $2 million in 2020, and the land being relisted for sale.
Ōtākaro Ltd, the company overseeing the city’s anchor projects, last year announced it would sell three of these lots in the development (including the Harwood land) to other developers if it would speed up progress.
