Will the east frame ever be built?

The Government is to contractually bound with Fletchers for the development of the east frame.  As the article below explains, Fletcher Living is building just on two of the fourteen lots of the project called One Central.

Maybe it is time to hand some of the land over to other developers and interested parties, and see if suitable apartment complexes could be built.  Whilst there are penalties in the contract the government has with Fletchers, hopefully the government put some penalties of their own for non-completion, or delays.

As City councillor Jamie Gough has recently said central city living was one of the "most critical elements" of a successful rebuild.  It is critical that the an inner city population grows faster than current rates to drive a successful regeneration of the central city.  The businesses that have invested in the central city need more than the few pockets of people currently living in the city.
