These settlers created a Presbyterian community in Wellington several years before Auckland or Dunedin. As Wellington grew away from the harbour, St Andrew’s moved from the Thorndon waterfront to Lambton Quay and then to the current site on The Terrace. The Crossways congregation was based in a community house in Mt Victoria, rather than a special church building.
This was because they wanted to be a church that served the local community, a place where people could socialise, worship and learn. Crossways remained a community house until 2008 when it was sold to help fund the restoration of St Andrew’s. The current St Andrew’s, built in 1923, is registered as a category 1 historic building. The first St Andrew’s on the current site was a wooden building that was destroyed by fire in 1920.
The final stage of restoring St Andrew’s was to build the St Andrew’s Centre , which opened in 2014. This meetings and conference centre has become a popular venue for corporate, government and community groups to meet, work and play
