LandLAB’s vision for Te Rimutahi involved sensitively and adaptively re-using the site’s existing building structures and features to create a unique, hybrid open space and destination that captures the urbanity, spirit, and sense of place of Ponsonby.
The name ‘Te Rimutahi ‘was gifted for this site by Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei. Te Rimutahi was ‘The Lone Rimu’, a sacred tree that once stood where Ponsonby and Karangahape Roads intersect today.
