PHOTO: PIERS FULLER/FAIRFAX NZ – Masterton Town Hall is one of the town’s most prominent buildings but has largely been unoccupied since June 2016.

With a big decision looming over the fate of Masterton’s earthquake-prone 100-year-old town hall, a developer has come up with a plan that aims to save the best of the old and create something new.

David Borman has studied the council building and town hall’s plans and believes the best parts of the  old structure can be saved, while also building a new 700-seat civic centre for less than the cost of starting from scratch.

Borman  is experienced in dealing with earthquake-prone buildings.
