2021 New Zealand Architecture Awards Winner

Commercial Bay

The transformation of an entire city block on a pivotal downtown site has been expertly handled to create an engaging urban experience. By successfully opening up the project’s centre with laneways that form connections and reinforce linkages to the wider site context, the architects have crafted a public space that is an extension of the urban fabric beyond its threshold. The precinct successfully deals with the scale of both the skyline and street, while activating its four edges with individual but interrelated street-front buildings. Connections to multiple transport networks - including bus, rail and ferry - have been integrated, and tunnels for the underground City Rail Link are accommodated beneath. This is a project that seeks to represent Auckland’s unique identity with skill and care, and that triumphantly enriches the city far beyond the boundaries of its site.
