Stuart Gardyne: Who's afraid of Shelly Bay? STANTIALL STUDIO/SUPPLIED The view towards the proposed village green in the Shelly Bay development. So what of this "loss of green space", which seems to be strongest card played by opponents to the Shelly Bay development? Shelly Bay is uniquely positioned so the nearest locals are unlikely to be affected during the working week when most of the construction occurs. This plan will transform Shelly Bay into a space for all Wellingtonians – not just a privileged few.
