Centreport | Wellington

The CentrePort Master Plan (also known as Harbour Quays) and subsequent implementation sites, Areas A, D and F, encompass a portion of the working port that has been redeveloped into urban fabric. The design provides a permeable network of streets and open spaces, which knit the existing infrastructure of the port into the adjacent city grid. The improved pedestrian network provides better connections with the city and opportunity the future development of Harbour Quays.

The design uses robust urban elements, reflective of the large-scale port environment, to structure public spaces and streets. An uncomplicated material palette comprising large pre-cast concrete kerbs, concrete and stone paving, asphalt, avenue tree planting and mass planted linear rain gardens define its urban character. At the heart of the development pocket parks provide seating, visual amenity, and shelter.
