Auckland's historic St James Theatre is to be restored and a neighbouring 36- level retail residential tower built, due for completion by 2018, that will include a three - level retail precinct and 195 car parks.

The St James suites comprise 307 apartments made up of 16 three-bedrooms, 120 two-bedroom and 171 one-bedroom apartments and will provide high quality apartments for both owner occupiers and investors.

This iconic building is situated within walking distance of Auckland University, AUT, and Auckland Senior College and is in zone for Auckland Grammar. It is right in the retail heart of Auckland in Queen Street and amid major cultural centres, being midway between the Auckland Art Gallery, Auckland Central Library and Aotea Centre. Easy access to motorway junctions and public transport is an added feature of this location.
