Hobsonville Point in Auckland's Northwest is being developed on the site of a former Air Force base, which will be home to more than 11,000 Aucklanders. Housing is at a higher density than has been normal for a suburban setting in Auckland. The high quality of the homes and amenity has made it an exemplar of integrated residential development in New Zealand.
Northcote, on Auckland’s north shore, is located just over the Auckland Harbour Bridge, a mere 15-minute drive from the CBD. It has good transport links, with further improvements planned for buses. The suburb is only 10 minutes by car from neighbouring retail and hospitality hub Takapuna and its safe swimming beach. The area benefits from many parks and sports grounds and has a strong community spirit, aided by the many families that have long lived in Northcote.
Oranga is a hidden gem in central Auckland, 9km to the southeast of the CBD near the employment hubs of Greenlane and Penrose. It is close to Onehunga town centre, which is a well-connected hub with plans for expanded transport links in the future. It is also near the residential suburbs of One Tree Hill, Greenlane, Ellerslie and Royal Oak, all of which have established village centres. Oranga is a 2-minute drive or 15-minute walk to Auckland’s premier park, Cornwall Park, at Maungakiekie (One Tree Hill). Renewal plans cover around 20 hectares of Kāinga Ora land in Oranga, expanding public housing and providing new market homes.
The Roskill Development will deliver quality new homes to several neighbourhoods in the greater Roskill area, expanding the number of social and new market housing. Development work is under way in Roskill South, Ōwairaka, Waikōwhai and Wesley (west).
Tāmaki is located 12km from Auckland’s CBD and is well connected with strong public transport and infrastructure. The area enjoys spectacular natural advantages as its geography forms a natural amphitheatre with stunning views across the Tāmaki River and to Mt Wellington. New Zealand’s largest inner city urban regeneration project covers some 900 hectares across the inner eastern Auckland suburbs of Glen Innes, Point England and Panmure.
We’re working alongside Tāmaki Regeneration Company to deliver New Zealand’s largest urban transformation project. The Tāmaki Regeneration will replace around old social houses in the suburbs of Glen Innes, Panmure and Point England to build new quality homes for Tāmaki tenants and private homeowners.
Eastern Porirua is part of the city of Porirua, located 24km north of Wellington. It has one of the highest concentrations of social housing in New Zealand, with most of these homes built in the 1960s and 1970s. Many are old, past their best and not the size and type that Porirua families need now, and in the future. With the opening of Transmission Gully, revision of the Porirua City Council’s District Plan and the area’s population projected to grow significantly over the coming decades the timing is right for some ambitious thinking about how we can support growth where communities can thrive — from this generation to the next.
