'Likelihood' Wellington library will be demolished - mayor

The fern globe that hangs above the capital's Civic Square has been pulled down again for remedial work, less than a year after being returned after earlier repairs. Neil Dawson's fern sculpture was removed in 2015 for repairs and it took three years for it to return to the square. It's another blow for an area described as the "heart" of Wellington. The Central Library was closed suddenly in March due to worries about its safety in a large earthquake. The Town Hall, council offices and a children's creative centre are also closed for strengthening work. And there are concerns for the nearby City-to-Sea bridge. Justin Lester is the mayor of Wellington.
