Wellington's Queen Victoria Monument is an early 20th-century statue of Queen Victoria by British sculptor Alfred Drury. Copied after Drury's earlier 1903 Portsmouth statue, Victoria is depicted standing triumphantly in her Robe of State and widow's cap, holding a royal scepter and orb. The monument's plinth additionally features a plaque and three bronze reliefs, designed in the New Sculpture style, depicting the Treaty of Waitangi and various artistic and scientific inventions of the Victorian era. Initially located at Post Office Square, the statue was relocated in 1911 to the median between Kent Terrace and Cambridge Terrace within the Mount Victoria neighbourhood of Wellington, New Zealand. The monument faced negative public opinion and a lack of maintenance throughout the mid-20th century. However, attempts to relocate the monument to its original location made in the 1990s met considerable public backlash from Mount Victoria residents. The statue was repaired prior to the 2001 centenary of Queen Victoria's death.

The QT Wellington Hotel (previously the Museum Art Hotel, Museum Hotel de Wheels, and originally called the Michael Fowler Hotel) is located in Wellington, New Zealand. It is one of the largest buildings to have been moved from one site to another. The building was designed by architect Geoff Richards and completed in 1987. Originally known as the Michael Fowler Hotel, it had 38 guest rooms and two penthouse suites. Sir Michael Fowler lived in a residential apartment on the top floor. The Government bought the building in 1990 as it wanted the land for the proposed Museum of New Zealand. Entrepreneur Chris Parkin took over management of the hotel in October 1990 and bought the building from the Government in 1992. By that time it was known as the Museum Hotel. After the building was relocated, its name changed to the Museum Hotel de Wheels, then the Museum Art Hotel. In 2015 Parkin sold the hotel to Amalgamated Holdings, and in 2017 the hotel's name was changed to QT Wellington. Parkin's collection of around 200 artworks is housed in and leased to the hotel. The hotel expanded into a neighbouring property in 2004, adding 94 hotel rooms and 127 apartments, and as of 2020 had 180 rooms, including 25 art-inspired Gallery Rooms and 99 self-contained apartments.
