     This heritage building at 128 Abel Smith St is owned by the Lebanese Society and is being restored by members of the Te Aro community.



Feel free to visit our open house at 128 Abel Smith St anytime for a guided tour by our caretakers or call the house on 9764663. If you are keen to get involved, restoration collective meetings are held there every second Wednesdays at 6pm, all welcome. Or you can join our email working group.

We have incorporated the Community Building Trust as a registered non-profit organisation to care for 128 and potentially other neglected heritage buildings in Te Aro and around the country. An official homepage is under construction at www.communitybuilding.org.nz which currently houses a potted history of the 128 building.
