Te Ngākau Civic Square Precinct Development Plan out for public consultation
Pōneke Collective is proudly led by Warren and Mahoney in collaboration with Tīhei, Place Collective, Ripple Resilience and Council officers. The draft Te Ngākau Civic Square Precinct Development Plan, out for public consultation in October, brings together the works underway in the precinct, as well as future development, into a single vision for a revitalised Te Ngākau as the civic and cultural heart of Pōneke.
Mayor Tory Whanau says the Precinct Development Plan is an inspiring document that gives people a real sense of how transformative Te Ngākau will be.
“It’s so exciting to see how the overall vision for Te Ngākau will be realised once these remaining projects are completed. There are lots of different options in this plan, and we need help from Wellingtonians to further shape and refine it. I am looking forward to us having a fantastic Civic Precinct that all of Wellington will be able to use and enjoy.”
“It’s been a joy to bring together the breadth and depth of talent into this project from right across the practice, from our landscape architects, urban planners, our commercial architects and designers and visualisations team. And equally, the diversity and richness from our project partners Tihei, Ripple Resilience and Place Collective,” says WAM Project Principal Simon Hardy.
“This project will leave a significant legacy for the people of Wellington in the heart of the city. It’s incredibly meaningful to our community and it's a privilege to be creating a framework for future development within the precinct, as well as leading and delivering a landscape strategy to revitalise and connect Te Ngākau to people place, city and harbour".
