This cozy apartment offers beautiful views over manicured gardens and is complete with two bedrooms and an open plan layout, giving you plenty of room to spread out - and even host a sleepover for the grandkids. With its ground floor location, getting around is a breeze. Plus, the east-facing positioning means you’ll be enjoying your brekky and the paper bathed in morning sunshine.

Kia ora neighbours. Ferry services at Te Onewa Northcote Point Wharf are being suspended for six weeks, so improvements can be made to the wharf just one year after it received a $2.6 million upgrade.

Ferry services at Te Onewa Northcote Point Wharf are being suspended for six weeks, so improvements can be made to the wharf just one year after it received a $2.6 million upgrade.
The wharf closed for health and safety reasons in June 2018 after routine maintenance revealed wooden structural pieces of the wharf had deteriorated.
After project delays of more than a year due to a funding snafu and Covid-19, the wharf’s structure was repaired, and it reopened on 4 February 2021, with improved shelter, security, lighting and seating for passengers.
However, today the wharf closed for up to six weeks while Auckland Transport makes improvements to the berthing structure, including the addition of three new berthing piles and pre-mounted bollards.
Auckland Transport has not responded to my questions about why the improvements were not included in the $2.6m upgrade.
Commuters will need to catch a bus into the city or catch the ferry from Birkenhead.

We all love a cheeky grin and a wave from our local grocer, or a toot from the delivery driver, or a coffee order that’s ready before we arrive. And especially over the last year, it’s been the small businesses in our communities that have almost made things seem ‘normal’.
