Amidst the hustle of Wellington, McKerrow stands as a silent observer. McKerrow isn’t a building or a monument. It’s a peak, reaching towards the Wellington sky. Barbara McKerrow, former chief executive of Wellington City Council, certainly left her mark on the city. Her tenure was marked by controversy, from the “Let’s Get Wellington Moving” project to the Thorndon Quay and Wakefield Street developments. The Reading Cinema sale and her stance on the Wellington Airport shares also drew criticism. McKerrow’s attempt to implement the “CEO’s Protocol” further fueled tensions. Despite these challenges, McKerrow described her time as chief executive as “tremendously rewarding.” Her legacy, like the peak that bears a similar name, remains a prominent part of Wellington’s landscape. While the controversies may fade, the impact of her decisions continues to shape the city. As you gaze at McKerrow, consider the complex interplay of leadership, vision, and consequence that shaped Wellington.
