Choice Plaza is one of the more unusual buildings in central Auckland, and it is the work of the architect Ron Sang. The Orient Towers sit at 10 Wellesley Street East in the City Centre, so the reason to come is to look at the building itself: its shape and its place among the office and retail blocks around it. It is a historic site in the sense that the building is recognised for its design, and the listing points to a National Library record for those who want to read about its history.
For a visitor on foot, the tower is an easy stop on a walk through the city centre. Its unusual form stands out against the straight lines of the streets nearby, so it rewards a slow look from the footpath as well as from inside.
