Nathan Homestead in Manurewa will temporarily close from June 30, for approximately 12 months, so work can be carried out on its restoration and seismic strengthening, as part of Auckland Council’s renewals programme. “Nathan Homestead is much loved by the local community,” Winiata said. Hill House Cafe co-owner Peter Matvos was upset when they were told they had to close temporarily for the renewal works.
