Arrowtown’s heritage buildings will be glowing brighter this winter with the near completion of the Lighting Masterplan for Arrowtown.

The venture has been undertaken to ensure Arrowtown’s heritage buildings, as well as pathways and verges around the town’s centre, are adequately lit.

“It’s been an ongoing project supported by a number of local trusts and the Queenstown Lakes District Council to ensure that appropriate heritage lighting has been installed or upgraded on historic building facades in the village,” says Lakes District Museum director, David Clarke. “This includes the Arrowtown library building, several historic landmarks and trees and the wonderful Miners’ Cottages at the entrance to the town.”
