A $452 million 21-storey high-rise building has been unveiled and is to be built above one of Auckland's new railway stations.
Auckland Council has signed over a $40 million, 125-year lease to a Malaysian developer which will see construction take place over the City Rail Link's underground Aotea Station set to open in 2024.
The plans include commercial and retail space, 60 apartments and a public plaza. The developer, Malaysian Resources Corporation Berhad (MRCB), will begin construction of the nearly half-billion dollar building after the completion of the station in 2024, and is expected to take about three years.
What do you think about the design?

Have you had your say on Auckland Council's recovery budget for 2021 to 2031?
You have until March 22 to give your feedback on the council's proposed 10-year budget, to highlight what is important to you and how it should be paid for.
Auckland’s recovery budget will increase the council’s total capital investment in the city from $26 billion to $31 billion over the next 10 years.
The investment will deliver infrastructure for transport, housing and water along with helping to stimulate jobs and boost the economy.
It will respond to the impacts of climate change, protect the environment, and provide essential services to Aucklanders.
The budget sets out a continued focus on savings to manage the loss of council income from the financial fallout of COVID-19, with cumulative losses projected to reach around $1 billion by 2024.
Which council services are important to you?
How do you think they should be funded?

Almost to the day, we were celebrating the 25th Anniversary of the New Zealand School of Food and Wine with special wine tastings, cooking classes, forage and gastronomic dinner for over 75 guests + our students. Many of our Christchurch team, including Lois, Philippe and Victoria had come up for the weekend. My mother-in-law, June Hay had also joined us from her retirement home in Christchurch. By Sunday 15 March, I was getting pretty nervous about Covid-19 and rather than have June stay in the North Island for a holiday, she returned home the next day. A few days later June's rest home went into lockdown and I counted the 14 days to see if we too had a NZSFW Covid Cluster. Fortunately not! See below some photos as we recalled the 10th Anniversary of the Christchurch Earthquakes.

We’ve decided to run a special offer for people with bunions - “Bunion Evaluation” for only $33 (worth $85). Offer valid 12/02/21 - 12/03/21
Many doctors and podiatrists believe that surgery is the only way to fix a bunion. This is not true. Bunion surgery is painful and doesn’t address the underlying cause of a bunion, which is generally the way we walk and stand. Ideally, surgery should be considered as the last treatment option for bunions.
At Corrective Foot Solutions, we use a gentle, hands-on technique to effectively treat and correct bunions – which means there’s no need for surgery or orthotics. We use Foot Mobilisation Therapy to correct the underlying cause of your bunion by working on the misalignments in the foot, as well as strengthening the weakened muscles around the joints.
Pop in and see us at 272 level 3b Parnell Rd, Parnell, Auckland or give us a call on 092129250.

Auckland Zoo's only free-range peacock Harold has been euthanised due to ill health.

The 20-year-old peafowl was suffering from a severe infection of the crop, the muscular pouch where he stores food, and took a turn for the worse.
Harold was more than 20 years old.
He came to Auckland Zoo from Isaac Conservation and Wildlife Trust near Christchurch in May 2002.
Auckland Zoo keepers said Harold was a charismatic wanderer, and a brave adventurer who would even visit the rhino, emu and brolga.
He knew his way around the zoo incredibly well, including the short cuts to different areas, they said.
The bird's musical honk and provocative tail shimmy was a sight to behold, with only the female guinea fowl seemingly immune to his charms, Auckland Zoo staff said.
“Harold would mysteriously travel across the Zoo, frequenting every animal keeper kitchen for a smorgasbord of treats”, staff said.
Do you remember seeing Harold during your trips to Auckland Zoo?
What are some of your memories of him?

Racing resumes today and Friday under Covid-19 alert level 2 restrictions, with two races per day between 4pm and 6pm.
Defender Emirates Team New Zealand will take on Luna Rossa Prada Pirelli in the battle to win the 36th America's Cup in Auckland.
The first team to win 7 races takes home the Auld Mug.
Auckland Unlimited destination general manager Steve Armitage said despite Auckland's lockdowns delaying the regatta, the city was still expecting a successful final match with support from Auckland and around the country.
“We’ve been waiting for this moment since Team New Zealand’s win in 2017 and it’s finally here," Armitage said.
"While it’s great that there are so many ways to watch from home, you don’t want to miss out on the buzz and atmosphere happening right here in Auckland.
“It has been a challenging period, but Auckland has been here before and we’ve demonstrated our resilience and ability to adapt through tough times like these.”
Under level 2 restrictions, the Race Village will not be activating with screenings of the racing but the surrounding bars and restaurants will remain open.
Armitage said many Summernova events would resume in the weekend if Auckland was shifted to alert level 1.
A virtual performance from Sir Rod Stewart was planned in the lead up to Saturday's racing, he said.
Rock the Dock, a joint venture between Tourism New Zealand and Auckland Unlimited, will see Stewart perform his hit song, ‘Sailing’ virtually from London for all of Auckland and New Zealand to join in.
The event will be beamed onto the big screen in the America’s Cup Race Village on March 13 from 2.30 pm to 3.30 pm and will be broadcast by TVNZ.
The singalong will also be screened at Summernova’s Race Days by the Sea, Waterbourne Beach Festival and Kia Kotahi Race Days at Takaparawhau Bastion Point.
If Auckland drops to alert level 1 in time for the weekend's racing, these Summernova festival events will hit the super city:
Waterbourne Beach Festival at Takapuna Beach Reserve, Kia Kotahi Race Days at Takaparawhau, Bastion Point, Race Days by the Sea at Windsor Reserve, Devonport, and Love your Maunga ki Maungauika at Devonport's North Head.
Live music will feature at Komititanga Square and Mission Bay on Saturday and Sunday from 1.30 pm to 6.30 pm, with free face painting and bubble stations for the children.
Dock out shows, cultural displays and entertainment will hit the Race Village under alert level 1.
Are you planning to watch the racing?
Will you go down to see it in person or view it from home?
Who do you think is going to take home the Auld Mug?

Read more about the rescue in Melanie Earley's story:
A kitten has survived what could have been a catastrophe on Auckland's Southern Motorway during last night's rush hour.
Auckland City District police’s motorway patrol team were called to help after members of the public reported seeing a kitten on the highway near Grafton shortly after 6pm on Tuesday.
The kitten managed to cross all southbound lanes unscathed, but could have caused an accident, so motorcycle officer Senior Constable Robert Campbell came to its rescue.
Auckland City District police posted a photograph of the tiny tabby, who appeared to be abandoned, hiding inside a bag intended for Campbell’s speed detector.
Police said the kitten was then taken to the nearest police station for some water, and to the SPCA for a check over.
“Quite smitten with the kitten, Rob decided to give the ball of a fluff a new loving home with his family,” police said.
It’s not the first time this year a kitten has had to be saved from Auckland's southern motorway – in January, a kitten had to be rescued between Greenlane and Market Rd by police.
