It was the second observatory in Wellington. It was built in 1907 and originally named the Hector Observatory after James Hector until 1925.[1] It was built to replace the Colonial Observatory which was located in the Bolton Street Cemetery.[2] The observatory was primarily used to maintain New Zealand Mean Time for the Time Service based on astronomical observations.[3] It was designed by architect John Campbell in the Edwardian Baroque style.[3] The observatory was vacant in 1993, and in 2003 it was refurbished by the Department of Conservation to be used by private businesses.
