Introduction
The project marks the development of Cornwall Park, one of New Zealand's most valuable urban public spaces. This project provides an extraordinary opportunity to think about a very long time span, and its design needs to strike a balance between the three elements: the Maori cultural landscape, the vision of early settlers and founders, and the agriculture of New Zealand. Landscape and local ecological resources. The master plan considers these three dimensions in parallel with park projects and service infrastructure. The final program expands the capacity of the park to support a healthy urban ecology and will provide visitors of all ages with access to education and relaxation over the next 100 years.
Reason to Be Selected
The master plan looks at ways that the incredible beauty of the park can live on for generations. It identifies why these places are appealing, and how they can evolve to in the years to come. The plan looks at ways that users will enjoy the beautiful grounds, locally sourced food, exercise and sports opportunities, and ways to learn about the incredible history of the land.
Highlights:
The park's own ecological characteristics and the wider local ecological network enter the research area. The program recognizes the park's agricultural heritage and provides some ways to attract the attention of visitors. The program demonstrates how to create a park based on unique characteristics while introducing amenities, spaces and experiences that serve a diverse and growing population.Details
The 425-acre Cornwall Park is a jewel in Auckland and a popular destination for the public. The program proposes that the New Era Park is characterized by a typical walking experience, an area expansion, and the connection of park land by moving the parking lot from the core to the surrounding area. As a result, designers have been able to redesign the road network to create better accessibility, entertainment and space for pedestrians to serve a variety of parties, sports and other possible activities. The plan integrates the existing park space and adapts it to the upgraded framework, while giving advice on improving service facilities, greening, and space layout. The designer worked with the Cornwall Park Board and staff, as well as a team of consultants including Maori leaders and local transportation planning, ecology, archaeology, history, engineering, and customer service to develop a master plan.
Recommended
The following guidelines form the basis of the master plan:
- Supporting conservation and positive deduction in the cultural heritage and history of the park.
- Enhance the ecological management of the park and its ability to recover quickly from disasters.
- Strengthen the design and aesthetics of the park and the willingness to pursue beauty in all aspects.
- Ensure that agriculture is integrated into park management as an important part of cultural heritage.
- For the park to continue serving the Auckland citizens for a long period of time, and to prepare for the city park from the suburban park.
Landscape architects use the rich features of the park to build a basic framework to articulate the principles and develop key nodes and implementation strategies to achieve these principles. The strategy consists of five elements: cultural landscape, ecology, agriculture, user experience, and infrastructure.
Conclusions
Park re-planning provides a rare opportunity for the public to understand and fall in love with local cultural history. A park is a public place that provides entertainment, exercise, learning, cultural display, connectivity to land and nature, and strengthens community cohesion.
