Waikanae

Our long-term vision for the Waikanae town centre is a vibrant space with an arts and culture focus, meeting the needs of its community. Mahara Place will provide a sense of place that people strongly associate with and feel part of, and improved pedestrian access and better connections make it easier to get around. The historic village connection with the Whakarongotai Marae is now reflected with the ‘cultural thread’ through the town centre.
