Coastal, resort-oriented, and urban infill development continues to evolve across the North Island, with projects increasingly transitioning from earlier single-family subdivisions to higher-density multi-family housing, while other projects move toward completion.
Serviced roads and infrastructure are taking shape across the Oceanwest site, marking the transition from earlier subdivision phases to future multi-family development within the coastal landscape.
