The Talk of The Town – Simon & Chris | Emma & Nikki – Sublime Coffee Rosters/ Bridge Street Studio
Welcome back to Talk of the Town, coming to you from the vibrant Bridge Street Studios in the heart of Nelson.
In this episode, hosts Chris Butler and Simon Duffy sit down with Emma Henna, co-owner of Sublime Coffee Roasters, and Nikki Neate, General Manager, to explore one of Nelson’s most exciting new CBD developments.
What started as a move from New Street has evolved into something much bigger — a thriving creative and business hub bringing together over 20 small businesses under one roof.
From coffee roasting and hospitality to creative studios, tech businesses, and boutique retail, Bridge Street Studios is redefining what a modern city space can look like. Emma and Nikki share the journey behind the transformation — from an abandoned nightclub to a dynamic, community-driven destination — and how collaboration, creativity, and local investment are shaping the future of Nelson’s CBD.

The Talk of The Town – Simon & Chris | Mayor Nick Smith, Nelson City Council
Welcome to another episode of Talk of the Town, where we celebrate the stories, people, and businesses that make Nelson, New Zealand, so unique.
In this episode of Talk of the Town, Chris Butler and Simon Duffy are joined by Mayor of Nelson Hon Dr Nick Smith to discuss the city’s direction, challenges, and opportunities as it moves through a period of change.
Mayor Smith reflects on his journey into a second term, highlighting the progress made in building a more unified council and setting a clear vision for the future. Central to that vision is the revitalisation of Nelson’s CBD, major infrastructure upgrades, and a renewed focus on economic recovery.
The conversation explores key projects including Bridge Street redevelopment, the future of Civic House and library, and exciting potential developments along the waterfront. It also looks at how Nelson can learn from other cities, strengthen its local economy, and support businesses through seasonal and global pressures.

High Five Heroes
New Bridge Street game turns high fives into rewards.
Bridge Street meets augmented reality with a new mobile game launched by the Bridge to Better team – High Five Heroes.
Familiar faces on Bridge Street, including Nelson’s Mayor, Deputy Mayor and Gentle Ged, have been transformed into animated characters and giving them a virtual high five could earn you points and rewards!
“This is such a fun way to showcase the people working behind the scenes on Bridge Street every day,” says Deputy Mayor Pete Rainey.
“While roadworks, traffic management and construction activity are often the most visible parts of a project, the game features all of these elements from team members to diggers, pipes and road cones.”
The game is designed to encourage more foot traffic into the city centre, giving families another reason to spend time on Bridge Street.
