New buildings, including hotels, will enjoy river views.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">The park zoning will be about 30 metres wide on either side of the river and addresses existing geotechnical constraints. As part of Te Papa Otakaro, Victoria Square will be revitalised as a place of welcome for all and become a thriving and vibrant area.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">\u2018Watermark\u2019 is the first section of Te Papa Otakaro\/Avon River Precinct to be designed and constructed. This early development site spans the river\u2019s true left bank between Antigua Boatsheds and Montreal Street and will provide a snapshot of how some elements of the river precinct could look and feel. The design for the Avon River Precinct will be further developed with community feedback helping to achieve a long-term vision for the precinct.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Article Acknowledgment &#8211; Canterbury Business Development Unit.<span style=\"font-size: small;\">\u00a0http:\/\/ccdu.govt.nz\/what-we-are-doing\/te-papa-otakaro<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: left;\"><em>\u00a0<\/em><\/h2>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The winding path of the Otakaro\/Avon River will mark Christchurch\u2019s new river precinct.\u00a0Te Papa Otakaro\u00a0will include Victoria Square (formerly Market Square) and be part of the central city\u2019s spiritual and aesthetic identity.
