Britomart is a restored 6.5ha waterfront precinct housed within and around nine historic blocks. Here’s where you can find an eclectic collection of shopping options, from flagship stores of some of New Zealand’s top designers to international brands and indie boutiques showcasing must-watch brands. For art enthusiasts, the temporary art installations – such as artist Charlotte Graham’s ground-based temporary artwork made up of hand-painted multicoloured “water droplets” printed as 1,200 floor decals – scattered all around the area will be a delight. Dining options, from contemporary Vietnamese to Italian to artisan French pastries, are aplenty here, too.
