2月25日:新西兰房产巨头、上市公司Precinct Properties近日宣布将在奥克兰CBD兴建价值5.5亿纽币的摩天大厦。此外公司还将向奥克兰市政厅支付2720万纽币,购买Queen Elizabeth 广场的一部分,并同奥克兰交通部门就城市铁路(CRL)隧道达成协议。


Precinct的首席执行官Scott Pritchard展示了这个36层玻璃幕墙建筑的效果图。该大厦将位于现在的Downtown Westfield地块,即Lower Albert 、Customs St East和Quay St的交界处。大厦兴建方案的公布,也意味着规划中的奥克兰中区城市铁路的兴建少了一个障碍。


在Precinct收购Queen Elizabeth广场1900平米地块的协议中,有一个前提条件,就是要对地块的用途进行改变,包括使得一些公开空间可以进行商业开发。


Precinct表示,奥克兰市政府将会修建新的公共空间,并且Precinct已经和市政府签署还会修建一条东西走向的步行道,同公交系统连接。Precinct计划明年动工兴建这栋CBD的新地标建筑,目前已经和奥克兰交通部门达成协议,确保城市铁路的隧道不会受影响。



The planned Precinct office tower on Auckland's waterfront


NZX giant listed landlord Precinct Properties has announced details of its $550 million Downtown skyscraper for Auckland's CBD and a deal to pay Auckland Council $27.2 million for part of Queen Elizabeth Square.


Scott Pritchard, Precinct chief executive, released the first images of the huge new 36-level glass tower to be built on what is now the Downtown Westfield site between the square, Lower Albert St, Customs St East and Quay St.


The decision means one of the final hurdles to the planned City Rail Link has now been cleared.


Precinct's 1900sq m square purchase is conditional on successful rezoning of the land which includes the road stopping process and a plan change so commercial development on what is now public land can go ahead, Precinct said in an investor presentation released to the NZX this morning.


"Auckland Council will use funds to provide alternate public space," Precinct said, also citing "an agreement with Auckland Council to provide an east-west pedestrian laneway through the Downtown development, linking key transport infrastructure."


Precinct is only buying part of the square - the area where the volcano fire/fountain now stands outside Whitcoulls, between the HSBC Tower and the Zurich block.


Longer-term council plans are to abolish the busy road which now runs through the centre of that square on public land and shift buses further into Britomart and a block west to Lower Albert St.


Precinct aims to begin building its giant glass skyscraper next year and has also struck a deal with Auckland Transport, so tunnels for the City Rail Link are built, ready for that big public project to proceed.


Pritchard said the skyscraper's costs have risen 10 per cent from $400 million-$500 million to $550 million due to plans for a larger building as well as construction cost escalations.


Auckland Transport will pay Precinct $9 million compensation for the tunnels' volume and a further $10.7 million for the additional costs of the developer straddling the land with its piles for the enormous tower.


Precinct described that last aspect of the deal as "payment of additional costs of office tower construction due to CRL tunnels $10.7 million."

All that provides Precinct with the ability to proceed with its Downtown tower development and it said it also reduced the CRL costs to Auckland Transport.
