Boffa Miskell designed the network of proposed reserves and public open spaces of the proposed Three Kings Development. Taurangi Reserve was required to provide a walking and cycling network; active recreation in the form of a sports field; and oinformal recreation activities such as play, running, walking and relaxation. These were underpinned by a range of technical requirements for the residential development including a water bore, wastewater pump station and green stormwater infrastructure.

Boffa Miskell led design of the reserve and its features from concept design through to detailed design and construction, while acting within the constraints of the brief and engineering requirements. This included involvement across an initial concept design phase which included consultation Auckland Council Parks Team and Fletcher Living to ensure that this new reserve met the requirements of both the new Three Kings community and Auckland Council as future asset owner.

Significant geological features would also be contained within the proposed parks, requiring their preservation and celebration. The development of an overarching cultural narrative for the project and its open spaces was also a key part of our team's role, informing the design of both this reserve and those in the wider project.
