Don’t Read This

Gotcha ...

Just like you, tens of thousands of other West Aucklanders are reading this magazine. And many will come back and read it more than once ...

The fact is that people do read print publications.

More often than not, their search for a specific product or service starts with something that they have read somewhere.

And even if they do additional research and make their eventual purchase through some digital platform, their choice will still be shaped by what they have seen in print.

To have your promotional message read by a large, engaged and affluent readership, advertise in a publication that is read.

Local flavour features in Titirangi’s newest building

The Rise: reflecting the creative, diverse and supportive community of Titirangi One by one, businesses in The Rise are opening their doors. Very soon we’ll be able to pick and choose from one of seven kiosk eateries and a boutique craft beer specialist, dine on a sunny deck in a groovy space, shop sustainably at Refill Nation, indulge at Crafty Baker’s new flagship store, take a yoga class or see a physio.

Construction began on The Rise in 2019 and this month the building has been handed to the tenants who are opening the doors on their new businesses. Around 50 people will work in the commercial offices in the building, which has 42 carparks – around half of these for public use – and bicycle storage facilities. Seven renovated office studios located underneath the neighbouring building will also become available this month. “We have provided the building but local business owners have seen the potential in The Rise and committed to making their home in Titirangi Village,” says Adrian Hughes of Broadway Property Group. “They will make it something truly special for everyone who lives and works here. We are excited to see it emerge.”

In an environmental context, the building – like others developed by Broadway Property – is expected to be equipped with solar energy once all the tenants are operational and the energy requirements are understood. Two EV chargers are provided in the carpark, as is bike storage for public and staff and postride facilities for tenants.

A green wall alongside South Titirangi Road links the building to the adjacent native bush which goes right to the edge of the building’s footprint. Local artist Mal White designed the facade inspired by the layered shapes within a Kauri tree that represent the creative, diverse and supportive community of Titirangi.

Street Feast is a visionary addition to Titirangi Village.

Many may know Marc Hershman as the driving force behind popular foodie events such as Brunch at French Bay. Now he is bringing his innovative flair to Street Feast Food Hall – a street food hub inside The Rise development in Titirangi.

Seven vendors have come together to create Street Feast, a collective of quality, independent food operators working in a shared hub.

“Broadway Property (the developers) approached us with a request that we do something out of the norm. They wanted quality operators, no big brands, and everything came to fruition,” says Marc. “Our customers will have a choice of multiple cuisines and a nice environment to relax in. We know how popular street food is. There is something for everybody.”

The eateries are: • Behemoth Brewing • Jo Bros Burgers • Loco Bros Tacos • Sapa Kitchen Vietnamese • Stumpy’s Wood fired Pizza • Mar and Tierra South American Grill • Wen and Yen desserts.
