Westpoint Performing Arts Centre
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Westpoint Performing Arts Centre is a venue located in Point Chevalier, Auckland, New Zealand used for theatrical performances and rehearsals.
The venue shares the MOTAT 2 (Museum of Transport and Technology - Aviation Section) Carpark, and is located at 190 Meola Road, Point Chevalier. Access is also available from Motions Road, Western Springs, or via the Motat Western Springs Tramway.[1]
Legend says that the building was named 'Westpoint' because it is located right on the border between three Auckland suburbs - Western Springs, Westmere, and Point Chevalier. The land that the building was built on was once a rubbish dump, and methane gas monitoring stations can still be seen outside the building today.
