• Protect and celebrate our unique landscapes, features and history - the Waipapa Stream valley has been used and abused for too long and the Domain disconnected from Parnell.
• The Newmarket Station Building could be a focal point for exploring the key role the Waipapa Stream played in Auckland’s development.
• Build on the historic steam train presence in combination with re-sited heritage Newmarket station.
• The next slide highlights the amazing history of this neglected Parnell valley.
Highlight HeritageWaipapa Stream’s rich history

• ARTA originally proposed a train station at Carlaw Park. New options include a station midway between Mainline Steam & original site, and another adjacent to Mainline Steam.
• Despite City Development Committee enthusiasm for Cheshire Street site, FPF still shows a Parnell Train Station at the CarlawPark location – but it’s not yet included in the 10 Year Plan. (Report requested by Cr Bhatnagar delayed and expected for November 12 meeting.)
• ARC / Mike Lee 100% behind Waipapa Valley/Cheshire Street location.
• Rodney Hide MP, Cr Ken Baguley and Hobson Community Board briefed and supportive.

we have no vision or patience
