Within the community are 3 different types of homes catering to investors, families and young professionals. Each terraced home comes with a private back yard and each home comes with car parking and a private outdoor, green space, which flows out from the living room.
The forms and materials used to create The Groves hark back to the original West Auckland horticultural land uses. Inspired by glasshouses and simple farm buildings, you can see this reflected in the roof forms and materials used.
Matvin has a long history of building commercial developments, which has allowed us to use more robust and permanent materials in each home.

We've earmarked the following priority playgrounds to receive full-coverage shade over the next 12 months:
* Birkenhead War Memorial Park, Birkenhead
* Monarch Park, Hillcrest
* Rewi Alley Reserve, Totara Vale
Plus Shepherds Park, Beach Haven, is already underway!
And we'll continue to add shade where we can as we upgrade other playgrounds (more on that later).
Shadesails are so important as they both protect children from the sun, and protect the play equipment from getting scorching hot.
Supported and funded by the Kaipatiki Local Board, Danielle Grant, Paula Gillon, Anne-Elise Smithson, Adrian Tyler, John Gillon.

Great to see work well underway at Rotary Grove, Northcote, upgrading the gravel pit into a sealed carpark. This carpark supports the Northcote Tennis Club as well as the playground and those exploring the park and route through to Onepoto Domain (pedestrians still have access during construction).… View moreGreat to see work well underway at Rotary Grove, Northcote, upgrading the gravel pit into a sealed carpark.

I've been wanting to see this carpark upgraded for some time and managed to get it added to the Kaipatiki Local Board's 2018/19 work programme, so I'm really happy it is finally underway :)

Pegasus Bay, from Waipara in North Canterbury, released its first Riesling in 1993 and today its grapes are sourced primarily from un-grafted vineyards planted over 30 years ago. Edward Donaldson also believes that while ripe fruits dominate the wine when young, given the opportunity to age, the rieslings can feel drier on the palate especially as they develop more savoury, caramel and tertiary notes.
The New Zealand Wine and Food Event is an annual three-day public event in Auckland comprising a showcase of New Zealand and international wine, cooking workshops and master classes.

This includes work to upgrade closed tracks to kauri dieback-prevention standard so we can reopen them. We are also investigating alternative non-kauri recreational routes for people to enjoy, including a coastal walkway between Tui Park and Shepherds Park (going out for public consultation in August/September), a connection between the two halves of Birkenhead War Memorial Park, and the Awataha Greenway* in Northcote. This is the largest investment we've had in new and upgraded connections in Kaipātiki and will go a long way in improving our neglected bush tracks :)
Here is a list of the tracks and paths approved for either construction or investigation over the next 12 months:
* Birkenhead War Memorial Park - new walking/cycling connection from Recreational Drive to Mahara Ave
* Chatswood Reserve - upgrade of closed tracks and bridge
* Chelsea Estate Heritage Park - continue to upgrade all tracks; also realign path (where slip happened) and replace bridge from Colonial Road to Chelsea Sugar factory & cafe
* Eskdale Reserve/Birkenhead Domain - stage 2 of track upgrade work throughout the park network
* Fern Glen Native Gardens - renew the upper meadow pathway
* Fordham St to Lanigan St Bridge - replacement of bridge destroyed by fire
* Hellyers Creek Reserve - upgrade of tracks and investigation of new connections
* Kauri Glen Reserve/Cecil Eady Reserve - upgrade of tracks (Note: the re-routed section 18 is due to open soon)
* LeRoy's Bush Reserve - stage 2 of track upgrade work (Note: the waterfall track is due to reopen in a few weeks)
* Leigh Scenic Reserve - upgrade of tracks, including rerouting of track away from 800 year old kauri tree
* Monarch Park - creation of a new "nature trail" through the northern bush area (investigation and design this year)
* Northcote Awataha Greenway* - connection from Jessie Tonar Scout Reserve, through Northcote Town Centre, behind schools, to new housing development area (investigation and design this year)
* Onepoto Domain - realignment of path away from edge of pond to minimise flooding
* Rangatira Reserve - upgrade of tracks at northern end of park, including connection to Birkenhead College
* Rewi Alley Reserve - replacement of paths, bridge and boardwalk around pond
* Shepherds Park - upgrade of bush tracks
* Smiths Bush Scenic Reserve/Kitewao St Esplanade Reserve - Repair bridge over pond and construct new connection to Kitewao St
* Soldier's Bay Reserve - renew access track
* Standish Reserve - renew connection from Pemberton Ave to coastal bush walk
* Tui Park to Shepherds Park coastal walkway connection (public consultation due August/September)
* Tuff Crater Reserve - St Peter's Street boardwalk reconfiguration and new lookout
Funded by the Kaipatiki Local Board. Some track upgrades part-funded by the Natural Environment Targeted Rate (NETR).
* The Northcote Awataha Greenway project is a collaboration between the Local Board, Hobsonville Land Company, Healthy Waters, Panuku and Auckland Council.
