Reconnecting the City to Te Awanui / Tauranga Harbour.
Tauranga City Council are developing a connected waterfront between the CBD and Memorial Park. Known as Te Hononga ki Te Awanui, the project focuses on providing for recreation to and along the waterfront. Reconnecting the city and the community to the waterfront will be achieved in a sensitive response that creates opportunity to integrate the cultural, ecological and landscape values important to area.
Boffa Miskell designers, planners and ecologists and the wider project team have worked collaboratively with Ngāi Tamarāwaho, Ngāi Te Ahi, Ngāti Ruahine (Ngāti Ranginui hapū – Te Rūnanga o Ngāti Ranginui Iwi Inc); and Ngāti Hē, Ngāti Tapu and Ngāi Tūkairangi (Ngāi Te Rangi hapū – Te Rūnanga o Ngāi Te Rangi Iwi) to develop the project in two stages.
