A giant step forward for Mt Albert town centre
The Mt Albert town centre upgrade has taken a major step forward through the acquisition of 915-927 New North Road, Mt Albert.
The acquisition of the ground lease at New North Road is a key step towards delivering a greater public connection between the upgraded Mt Albert rail station and the town centre.
An adjoining area of public open space will be created to enliven the Mt Albert town centre and create a gathering place for the community. The upgrade will also provide a boost for local businesses.
The Mt Albert town centre upgrade is a flagship project for the Albert-Eden Local Board. The Board made investing in Mt Albert a priority from day one and is excited about this step into the future.
Over the coming months, the Albert-Eden Local Board will work with the local businesses, residents and community groups to shape how the town square looks and what facilities it will have.
