The Joint Waterfront Visioning consultation in early 2005 provided an indication of the community's desires for this part of the waterfront. In particular the following charts illustrate the responses to questions about what is important for the waterfront's future. The land and any future design concepts for it must respond to a range of complex macro and micro environmental considerations. Macro The site's future role in the central area Connectivity and public transport requirements Auckland's urban topography - scale and context Market factors - economic viability and vitality Micro The following site-specific factors also materially informed the design process: Reclamation and edge conditions Contamination and hazardous substances Stormwater Roading and traffic Existing uses and ground leases Scale and shape Water's edge aspect Planning Context The design and planning teams have also had particular regard to the planning analysis which has been undertaken over the last 10 to 15 years. In particular the following design concepts have had to respond to the findings of the Auckland Waterfront Advisory Group (AWAG) process (2002/03), the Auckland City's 11 Principles for Redevelopment (2003), and the initial consultation outcomes of the Joint Waterfront Visioning Process (2004/05).
