I'd like to see that "Inner Circle" infrastructure used, and projected s/e
through Taylor Sq in the fullness of.... BUT - where would you have it go at
the western end - through a tight curve into Wynyard and onto the Bridge? (I
LIKE that idea!).

OTOH, I do see some sense in a station located near the 5* hotels in that
sector of the City. Underground links to the liftwells of the hotels would
be a "must" but yes it would tie in with the airport service.

WRT Martin Place and St James, wouldn't a pedestrian link suffice - maybe a
travelator?
