‘Pocket-city at the Edge of the World’

The Sydney Morn­ing Her­ald fea­tures a rather rave write-up on Wel­ling­ton on their web­site today:

After years of rel­at­ive obscur­ity, the city is blos­som­ing. It has rein­ven­ted itself as an eleg­ant, mod­ern place without the arrog­ance that often accom­pan­ies such devel­op­ment.

Okay, maybe we could have done without the ‘years of rel­at­ive obscur­ity’ part.
