Duncan Garner: State houses demolished, nothing to show for it

Duncan Garner: State houses demolished, nothing to show for it

Four years ago I visited this site in Sandringham, Auckland.

There were 17 state houses here.

The tenants were kicked out and the land and houses sold for $8.6m to a private developer - who said he would build 50 houses.

So four years on where are they?

Still being planned is the answer.

Progress is slow. Very. Very. Slow.

Welcome to Auckland -- no wonder we have a housing crisis.
