Auckland, remember when you could just build something dramatically out of scale and character in the low-rise central suburbs and no-one cared (that's the Northern Club)

Continuing their expansion into the residential property sector, Precinct Property recently acquired a large empty site at 99 College Hill. A location that should be upzoned further given close proximity to the City Centre, Ponsonby Town Centre and on Frequent Bus Routes.

When we relax planning rules that restrict development in desirable locations, then more development can and will often occur. Many people seem strangely resistant to what strikes me as an intuitive process.

Many planners must understand that just because a zone allows for a certain number of storeys, it doesn't mean it will be developed — and this is perfectly fine.

Take home points - Auckland asked for this and we’ve delivered - New plan means more choice around where and how Auckland grows - but it has to grow, because abundant housing is a fiscal and moral imperative and one of the best things we can for do for growth and productivity.
