Envision Your Auckland
August 24, 2017 @ 6:00 pm - 7:30 pm
FreeCome along and put your very own mastermind to good use in designing Generation Zero’s City Centre Masterplan.
Enjoy a Kokako filter coffee/ hot chocolate or fizz from Karma Cola and disclose your transport woes. We want your ideas and vision of what your ideal low carbon city would look like – as, after all, it will be affecting you.
You will also hear from the brilliant minds of Kathryn King, Manager of Walking, Cycling and Road Safety at Auckland Transport, and Richard Hills, Auckland Councillor for North Shore.
Since Auckland Council laid out its own City Centre Masterplan (back in 2012) for what the next 20 years of development will look like, the number of pedestrians on Queen St has doubled. And though the city centre’s population was projected to hit 45,000 by 2032, it’s already set to exceed that this year – 15 years ahead of predicted.
With the original plan up for consultation next year, we reckon it needs some serious work in catering to the ever changing and growing population of people who use the CBD in their daily lives.
So if you already live, work and party in downtown Tamaki Makaurau, now’s your chance to bring your transport, housing and spatial design critiques and solutions to the table.
Day and Time: Thursday 24 August, 6 – 7.30pm
Location: Room ALR5/421W-301 at the University of Auckland (Architecture Building, 26 Symonds St)
