The America's Cup is coming to Auckland's waterfront, and many new public spaces and developments have reached completion ahead of the event.
Panuku Development Auckland (Eke Panuku) hosted a whakawātea with iwi for the completion of stage two of the Westhaven Promenade and Marine Village!
In the early hours of 30 October 2020, before sunrise, a group of approximately 50 gathered to participate in a ceremony to celebrate the completion of the construction of two of the team bases on Wynyard Wharf.
Westhaven Marina was in the running for a number of awards such as the Marina of the Year, Best Environmental Performer, Outstanding Initiative Award and Outstanding Individual Contribution for Kevin Lidgard.
As the sun rose on 4 September, Taiaha and Clay Hawke from Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei led the karakia whakawātea from the southern corner of Park Hyatt Auckland, along the water's edge, through to Karanga Plaza to cleanse the recently completed public space, Ūrunga Plaza.
