HOUSING
Three Kings Quarry Development: Auckland
Fletcher Living · Auckland
Redevelopment of the former Winstone quarry at Three Kings into a neighbourhood of about 700 homes by Fletcher Living, on a 15.1ha site. Scaled down twice after a long consent battle: 1,800 homes originally, then 1,200 to 1,500, now 700. The $1.2b sometimes quoted covers the larger plan, not the scheme being built.
