Return to all projects

This ambitious urban upgrade created a lively, inclusive space for people to connect, relax and experience Auckland’s unique character.

The project: 

The Waitematā Station plaza and Tyler Street upgrade project has delivered a safer, more vibrant city space. This project, jointly funded between Auckland Council and City Rail Link Ltd, prioritises pedestrians by introducing a welcoming public plaza and improving connectivity to Waitematā Station. Enhanced landscaping with native trees, seating, and open areas foster an inviting environment, while cultural design elements strengthen the sense of place.
