Ponsonby Plaza - the new civic space at 254 Ponsonby Road

Jennifer from Ponsonby

It is with the greatest of pleasure that the Community-Led Design Group can now share the Preliminary design for Phase One of the new civic space at 254 Ponsonby Road with you all.

"Phase One will deliver the essential elements of the civic space, including landscaping, repurposing the existing forecourt canopy structure to provide a space for markets and events, and installing new public toilet facilities".

Funding for Phase One is through an endowment fund only available for this project and is therefore not impacted by Auckland Council’s ongoing financial challenges and the upcoming 10-year budget.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
