NRM Tower, in the Auckland CBD, is a high-rise office development currently under construction. Due for completion in May 2005, the building will have 18,700 square meters of office space on 14 levels, 194 car spaces and is already 80% leased.

GM Mr Michael Brown said that the development was a rare opportunity to acquire new premium, high-grade building in a strong market, leased to quality tenants and that provided a contemporary office work environment.
