Sky World Indoor Entertainment — Local services in Waitematā

Once upon a time, this center held a glimmer of joy in its heart, beckoning visitors with an array of delightful shops and tempting restaurants. Among them stood the enchanting haven of knowledge, the beloved Borders book shop, where bookworms found solace and adventure.

Yet, as I wandered through its hollow halls today, my heart sank like a stone. The once vibrant place now lies desolate and forsaken, like a ghost town haunted by memories of happier days. The few remnants of life linger on in the form of a lonely cinema and an empty bowling alley, but they are mere echoes of the past.

I couldn't help but feel a profound sadness as I walked amidst the emptiness, the silence enveloping me like a shroud of sorrow. It pains me to witness the decline of a once-thriving hub of activity, now reduced to a shadow of its former self.

In the midst of this desolation, I found myself yearning for a glimmer of hope, a lifeline to revive this forgotten place.

The toilets are never clean and the graffiti doesn't help. The cinemas are quite filthy too, next time have a look at the seats with a flashlight.

So all in all, fun place to hang out but really needs a good clean followed by more...

Pretty appalling appearance wise. From just entering via the steps, you can smell the piss from the homeless that sleep there at night. Then you enter and everything is barren and boarded up, there are only a few businesses that still run inside there such as the cinema and the bowling alley, those places are surprisingly good given that they are inside skyworld. I know that covid really hit this place hard, but it sucks looking at the state of this place pre and post covid times and how drastic the look of the place is now. One last thing is the steps, not sure if this is just me but I find it really confusing trying to leave the place, you can't leave the same way you entered. I enter from Queen street but can only ever find an exit onto Wellesley st, just a...
