Development West Coast
Construction is well under way on the Richmond Quay development, a joint project between Grey District Council (GDC), DWC, and Kānoa aimed at revitalising the heart of Greymouth.

This transformative development will house the new Grey District Library and community hub on the upper level, alongside a café with sweeping views over the Grey River. The ground floor will offer modern commercial tenancies, contributing to the vibrancy and economic renewal of the CBD.

“The partnership between GDC and DWC on the Grey District Library and Community Hub project marks a significant step forward for our community,” says Tania Gibson, Grey District Mayor. “This collaboration is delivering an impressive new facility that not only enhances the amenities available to our residents but also helps build renewed confidence in our central business district.”

“We’re proud to be shaping a vibrant future for the Grey District in partnership.”

DWC has committed $4.2 million to the Richmond Quay development, including the contribution of the freehold land for the building site. Kānoa has also invested $2 million into the project through the Regional Strategic Partnership Fund. The development is scheduled for completion early 2026.
