Our role in Westhaven
Our role in Westhaven
At Eke Panuku, we believe that creating world-class waterfront areas means working together with the private sector and the public.
This approach is proving successful along the waterfront where Wynyard Quarter and Westhaven Marina are much-loved parts of our city.
Eke Panuku is leading the regeneration of Westhaven on behalf of Auckland Council. We’re wanting to:
- Increase access to the marina for Aucklanders.
- Maintain Westhaven’s position as a competitive international facility through the management of existing commercial operations.
- Add a wider range of complementary businesses.
Eke Panuku has a mix of commercial and public-good objectives for Westhaven and receives revenue from its marina operations.
Here is a summary of our roles. We are:
- The owner of the marina boat harbour and surrounding public space, including the marina business, assets and seabed occupation rights.
- A corporate trustee, licensor and manager of the Westhaven Trusts and berth entitlement units through our 100% holding in Westhaven Marina Limited.
- A holder of about 50% of Westhaven berth entitlement units.
- An investor and developer.
- The marina operator.
