Five entries from Unitec BLA students were entered into the Kingsland Design Competition. Entries were made from Andrea Reid, Dustyn O'leary, Nicola Gainsford/Liam Winterton, Al Newsome/Luke Veldhuizen and Shirish Prasad/Sharook Waedueramae. The judging was close, but the winning design chosen by the judging panel was by 4th year student Dustyn O'leary. The competition registrar Christine Foley from the Kingsland Business Society said the following about the designs "We have been impressed by the high standard of the entries, which presented creative ideas that were exciting and Innovative". The purpose of the competition is the creation of Kingsland's first urban shared-use pocket park that enhances the value and usage of Alsco's adjoining property at 354-362 New North Road, Kingsland.
