The views are spectacular. Access stairs (and some very small signs) aren't too hard to find if you know what to look for.
These decks are part of the Resource consent for the Princes Wharf development - a Bonus Floor Provision where developers are permitted to get extras for their development (usually more floor space and/or taller buildings) in return for providing the public with things like viewing decks, art, through site access/shortcuts etc.
