The Future of Housing in Auckland

Auckland Conversations

Are we moving on from the Quarter Acre Dream? Is the hope for a quarter acre paradise lost for all but a few Aucklanders? Can we adjust to the new reality of terrace homes, apartments, and town houses? Is this what growth means for the city? With Auckland growing at a rate of 896 people a week how can everyone be guaranteed a home, either to buy or rent? Auckland clearly needs new housing options so the economic benefits of growth can be shared by all as we establish our place among the world’s most successful cities. Watch this Auckland Conversations’ to hear a panel discussion with views on Auckland’s rapid growth, its effect on the city’s future liveability and what we can do to manage our housing issues.
