Colin Maiden Park

Colin Maiden Park is a New Zealand sports complex in the Auckland suburb of Glen Innes, about 10 kilometres south-east of the Auckland CBD. It is named in honour of Sir Colin Maiden, vice-chancellor of the University of Auckland from 1971 to 1994. There are three grass pitch cricket grounds and other sporting facilities in the park. The main ground, which has a capacity of 4,000, is the home of University RFC and Auckland University CC, and is one of the home grounds for the Auckland cricket team. The main cricket ground began to be used for first-class cricket in 1999, and as of November 2023 it has staged 29 of Auckland's first-class and 20 of Auckland's one-day matches. Auckland played the final of the Ford Trophy there in 2009–10 and 2014–15. In 2014 the Auckland council took over the park as part of a condition of sale between the university and the council. The purchase ensures the 20-hectare parkland and sports field complex remain in public ownership. In 2025 further development of the cricket facilities was announced, in order to allow the Auckland cricket team to establish the ground as its base.

The original fire bell, a Sheffield bell dated 1874, is still in this tower. Four clock bells, manufactured by John Taylor and Co., Loughborough, England in 1903, moved into this tower after the 1930s earthquakes, which destroyed the post office clock tower in Victoria Avenue. The clock bells still ring at every 15 minutes today.

Craigieburn Valley Ski Area

Craigieburn Valley Ski Area is a club skifield in the Southern Alps of New Zealand's South Island, about 104 km west from Christchurch. Catering only to intermediate and advanced skiers, it features a vertical range of 1308–1811 m, 160 ha (400 acres) of skiable area and 3 fast rope tows, the first installed in 1949. In 1954 a project was attempted to install a T-Bar lift, with components airdropped from an RNZAF Bristol Freighter, but the tow suffered from engineering problems after only one season. The resort has several ski lodges but no gear hire. It is also the base for ski touring expeditions when conditions permit. It is immediately adjacent to the Broken River Ski Area, with which it shares a ski pass system. Skiing between the two is possible with backcountry ski touring involved . Craigieburn has two accommodation lodges, the main Koroheke lodge which has 6-bed dorm rooms and Matuhi which has private rooms. Through the winter there are many ski and accommodation package options as well as a ski week system, where people come and stay for a Sunday to Saturday week. Duties are shared between staff and guests and, while there is a cook and a manager, light duties are normally done by guests. This is the nature of most club fields in New Zealand. There is also a bar in Koroheke lodge, the normal meeting place after a day on the field. The services available during the day are at the day lodge located near the top of the mountain. There you can find hot food options and fresh coffee, and it is a warm spot to stop off with a great view of the ski area. Craigieburn is internationally famous for its steep terrain, 45% rated as advanced. There is no grooming and the hiking and ski touring options are excellent, including Middle Basin, a 600 m open bowl back to the access road. Hamilton Peak is a popular spot, giving the skier access to the upper Hamilton face. The trip to the Broken River ski field lift system can be accomplished from Hamilton Peak without any further ascent. However you are entering uncontrolled avalanche terrain and should bring proper equipment and the knowledge to use it. There are also many back-country and touring options past Middle Basin into North Middle, True North basins and Mt Manson. References External links Craigieburn Valley Ski Area

80 Queen Street

80 Queen Street, formerly the Deloitte Centre, is a skyscraper office tower in Queen Street, Auckland, New Zealand. Built between 2006–2009, it contains 18 levels of offices as well as four basement car parks and three levels of plant, and a special two-storey high architectural feature on the top giving a total height of 100 metres (330 feet). The building was one of the first skyscrapers to have a 5 star in the 'Green Star' environmental rating. History 80 Queen Street is built on an island site in the CBD, bordered by Queen Street, Shortland Street, Fort Street and Jean Batten Place. The site marks the beginning of the old shoreline of the 19th century. Everything north of the tower was under the Waitematā Harbour. The site had previously been occupied by a number of different buildings, including Victoria Arcade (built in 1885), then in 1978 Bank of New Zealand (BNZ) built their low-rise office block. In 2004, the BNZ entered into negotiations to build a skyscraper. The building incorporates the facades of the Jean Batten Building on the rear sides and the rear (as seen from Queen Street). The demolition of this heritage building for the new development had created some criticism. The architects counter that significant parts of the older structure were retained or reconstructed after the new building went up, creating a positive combination. Prior to 2024, approximately 56% of the office accommodation as well as 70 car parks and a large retail premises fronting Queen Street was leased to the Bank of New Zealand. The remaining 44% of the office accommodation was leased to Deloitte who occupied levels 11–18 including 100 car parks and the basement changing facilities until 2024. The building was named the Deloitte Centre. In August 2021, in the lead-up to Deloitte's exit from 80 Queen Street, BNZ decided to expand their presence, with staff moving under one roof from their Quay Park site. In 2024, Deloitte moved from 80 Queen Street to One Queen Street and since then, 80 Queen Street has become solely occupied by BNZ. Tenants Since 2024, BNZ has become the primary tenant, leasing the 18 office floors and main retail space. True Alliance is another major tenant who is leasing retail units on the ground floor with international brand names such as Lacoste and The North Face. The plant room will be situated at the upper levels and at level 7. The ground level will incorporate an entrance and 12-metre-high (39 ft) foyer at the corner of Queen and Shortland Street with the remainder of the ground level providing retail premises. Four levels of basement car parking will provide 170 car parks accessed from Fort Street. References
Dilworth Building

The Dilworth Building is a heritage mixed-use (residential apartments and shops on the ground floor) building at the corner of Customs Street and Queen Street in the Auckland CBD, New Zealand. The building by William Gummer & Reginald Ford was constructed between 1925 and 1927, and is listed as a Category I Historic building by Heritage New Zealand. At the lower entry to Queen Street, the building was once envisaged as one half of a 'gateway' to the city, and hailed as a visionary concept. However, the mirroring building on the opposite side of Queen Street was never constructed. History The building was constructed at the behest of James Dilworth as a rental property to help fund students at the Dilworth Ulster Institute (which later became Dilworth School). Originally the Dilworth Trust Board office was on the 9th floor (with a mezzanine floor) while the rest of the building was let out to tenants. The building was sold by the Dilworth Trust in the 1980s, but it still retains some of the original interiors. It has housed the American consulate, and during World War II served as headquarters for the U.S. Army.

Dominion Building, Wellington

The Dominion Building is a historic structure on the corner of Mercer Street and Victoria Street in Wellington, New Zealand. Originally designed as the headquarters of The Dominion newspaper, it now houses a mix of apartments, offices and retail areas. A distinctive seven-storey building of some elegance, the Dominion has a frontage of stone imported from Caen in France and interiors of Queensland marble. The building follows the bend in the road. Its most striking feature is a copper-covered tower with a lantern turret. In the mid-1970s, The Dominion newspaper moved out of the building. The complex was redesigned by Ian Athfield in 1995. The building is classified as a Category 2 Historic Place by Heritage New Zealand. Investigation of the leaking turret dome in 2022 showed that repairs were necessary, and remediation work funded by the residents and Wellington City Council was carried out during 2023. Decayed timber was replaced, and the original copper was replaced with 1.5 tonnes of new copper.

Duders Beach

Duders Beach, also known as Umupuia Beach, is located in the Auckland Region of New Zealand, to the east of Maraetai on the North Road from Clevedon. Duder Regional Park is on the headland immediately to the east. The land was purchased in 1866 from the original Maori owners Ngāi Tai by Thomas Duder. Today the beach is divided between the "public beach" and a private beach owned above the high tide mark by his descendants. Duders Beach has traditionally been a good source of seafood, notably shellfish, but stocks have been depleted in recent times. References
