Daylighting the Waitangi Stream transforms the city’s car corridor into a lush urban sanctuary where people and water live in balance.
Masterplan shows the daylighted Waitangi Stream as a green spine, with zones for pause, play, and connection that promote ecological and social wellbeing.
Visitors to the Play section of the design are encouraged to take time to enjoy themselves in and around the river.
The Connect area offers a peaceful space for people to gather, relax, and connect with nature.

This project explores how urban wellbeing can be achieved for both people and the natural environment in Te Whanganui-a-Tara Wellington. Guided by the kaipupuri taonga ki te ao whānui (Mauri Tūhono) framework, it envisions transforming Cambridge and Kent Terraces into a green spine through the city. The daylighted Waitangi Stream and its environs allow for moments of pause, play, and connection between the community and nature, helping to restore ecological and social wellbeing.
