The vision for th e Aotea Quarter

“The Aotea Quarter is the arts, culture and civic heart for the people o f Au ckland-Tamaki Makaurau:

A vib rant, resil ient and uniqu e place to indu lge the senses, express creativity, and celebrate ou r

indigenous & diverse cultures”

“Ko te Aotea Quarter te pūmanawa o ngā mahi toi, mahi ā - iwi, ā- tāone hoki mō ngā tāngata o

Tāmaki Makaurau:

He wāhi hihiko, manahau me tōna kotahi nei, e whāngai nei i te hinengaro, e hua ai te wairua

waihanga me te whakanui i ngā tini rerekētanga o ā tātou tikanga ā - iwi taketake, iwi kē rānei.”

Auckland is experiencing one of the most exciting periods of growth and change in its history. It is evolving

from a small city on the world stage to becoming a well-recognised mid-sized city renowned for its quality of

life, giving it the opportunity to grasp what already makes it great and address some of the challenges andissues that hold it back.

One part of the city now ready to meet its potential is the Aotea Quarter – made up of Aotea Square itself

and the blocks surrounding it. Much has been achieved over the past decade, with new and enhanced

cultural facilities such as the Q Theatre and the award-winning Auckland Art Gallery, upgraded spaces

including Queen Street, Aotea Square, Lorne Street, Khartoum Place and Bledisloe Lane, the first stage of

improvements to Myers Park and the establishment of a lively events programme. Thousands of people

have made this area their home.

However there is still plenty of untapped potential, including several underused council sites, and this

potential is growing. In the years ahead, the area will become increasingly well-connected by publictransport – by bus, train and potentially light rail – making it better able to fulfil its role as the civic and

cultural heart for all of Auckland.

City Centre Quarters with an energy and pulse are places to which people gravitate. They cannot be

manufactured but their foundations can be put in place and nurtured. This is an opportunity to be bold, to

embrace the rich history of this complex area and to unlock an exciting future.

Shaping the Aotea Quarter Framework

The Aotea Quarter Framework will update and advance the strategic direction set down in the Aotea

Quarter Plan and more recently the City Centre Masterplan in 2012. This summary and the full consultation

document have been developed in discussion with many of the key stakeholders, outlining the main issues

and opportunities affecting the area and presenting key ideas. Reflecting the change already happening

and the transformation yet to occur, it will provide the strategic vision for the next 20 years.

Your views will help shape the final framework when it is published at the end of 2015. This will be used to

inform future direction, decision-making and investment in the quarter, guiding the work of the council family

and its partners.
