Because it is the capital city, the New Zealand Parliament and the head offices of many Government departments and large businesses occupy central Wellington. This is especially true in the areas closest to Parliament Buildings - the northern end of The Terrace and Lambton Quay areas and the Thorndon commercial area. At midday, hundreds of public servants can be observed eating lunch at several parks and open areas, notably Midland Park on Lambton Quay.
