The ultimate goal of the Māpua Waterfront Area Masterplan is to public and community spaces that promote people’s health, happiness, and well-being.

The strategic future direction of the Māpua Waterfront Area encompasses:

  • preservation of the area between Golden Bear Brewery and the estuary as an open space reserve with minor improvements
  • retention of Council ownership, and preservation of the vibrancy of the Mapua wharf area as a ‘visitor destination’
  • retention of the reserve space in Waterfront Park and explore improvements to enhance community facilities and usage
  • retention of Council ownership of the remediated land area at Tahi Street as a strategic asset for the future
  • improvement, preservation and maintenance of the Grossi Point Recreation Reserve
  • improvement and management of parking, lighting, and accessibility and safety of walking areas.

The Masterplan is due for review after five years.
