Milford Reserve Nets Upgrade
The old toilet and changing room block at Milford Reserve is earmarked for a facelift.
Work is expected to start in mid-April to replace the longstanding brick building with a modern building.
The $1.2 million project will see eight new toilets, two showers, a double external shower, two changing rooms, a drinking station and a new seating area.
The building will have a beach-themed exterior in response to community feedback.
The old brick building had served users well but had reached the end of its life, said Devonport Takapuna Local Board chair Aidan Bennett.
“In 2018 we sought feedback from the community on what they would like to see here so I am sure everyone is excited to see it get underway.”
The areas will be fenced off during construction and four portaloos will be installed in the reserve for public use.
Construction is expected to take about three months, pending weather conditions.

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
