This prominent Frankton plot is set to be developed for worker accommodation. Plans have emerged for another massive worker accommodation complex in Queenstown. Sydney’s Nithan Thiru, director of land-owning company Staff Accommodation at Hansen Road Ltd, says he hopes building will start next year.

Rough sketches show apartments ranging in size from 20 square metres, for one-bedroom, to 60sq m for one-and-a-half bedrooms.
