Option Three

No town square
or development
This would mean the
status quo remains:
• The site at 40 Anzac Street would
  remain a car park, with no town square
  or additional public space created
  for Takapuna
• The site at 14 Huron Street would not
  be developed in to a multi-level car
                                            Q3. Do you prefer option three?
  parking building and the apartment
  development on the other part of this       Yes     Neutral    No
  site would not go ahead                   Please tell us why:
• No upgraded bus facilities on Lake Road
• No streetscape improvements along
  Huron and Northcroft streets
