Quality urban design will ensure there are plenty of opportunities for residents to meet and mix with their neighbours casually. All homes will be within walking distance of well-designed public spaces with recreational and community facilities – playing fields, tennis and basketball courts, schools, cafes and shops.

There will be a myriad of opportunities for friends and family to get together. Four kilometres of stunning upper harbour waterfront will be open to the public to explore for the first time. The exciting redevelopment of the Landing with its vibrant mix of cafes, shops and food producers, and a new ferry service to downtown Auckland, will make it a focal point for the whole community, as well as attracting people from all over Auckland to markets and events.

By 2015 there will be many more facilities and regular community events. We also expect that both the primary and secondary schools will be established and that there will be several new options for early childhood education. The Hobsonville Land Company will continue to play a hands on role in helping this new community thrive. We have a vision for The Landing, the area at the waterfront, to be a hub of activity with restaurants, cafes, shops and community spaces and events, including a farmers market.
