Te Hā Noa, a renewed Victoria Street, is the next big project in Auckland Council’s Midtown Regeneration programme 

Since it first made the pages of the City Centre Masterplan (CCMP) in 2012, Te Hā Noa has been described in different ways: linear park, tree-lined avenue and ‘the new backyard’.  

Last week, the green light was given by the council’s Governing Body for construction of the eastern section of Te Hā Noa - from Elliott Street to Kitchener Street - to begin.
