Greenlane Clinical Centre

Greenlane Clinical Centre is a public hospital in Greenlane, Auckland, located on Green Lane West, near Cornwall Park. The hospital is administered by the Northern division of Te Whatu Ora providing outpatient and day surgery services to the Auckland Region. The healthcare facilities at Greenlane have seen many notable developments in New Zealand's healthcare. History Preceding institutions The centre was founded as the Costley Home for the Aged Poor in 1890, built with funds bequeathed by Edward Costley. Run by the Auckland Charitable Aid Trust, it had an occupancy of about 175 patients. An Infirmary Ward for the Incurables, now known as building 5, was opened by Minister for Health George Fowlds in 1907. The site was renamed Auckland Infirmary in 1924. In 2007 Auckland District Health Board applied for resource consent to demolish building 5, making way for more parking and a new building. Heritage groups opposed the proposal, with the Environment Court finding in their favour. Building 5 was granted category one status by Heritage New Zealand in 2010. In 1942 the site became a general hospital with the completion of a Main Building in 1943. Greenlane became internationally renowned for heart surgery under Sir Douglas Robb and Sir Brian Barratt-Boyes, seeing the first open heart operation in the country in 1958, and the second heart valve replacement in the world in 1962. Greenlane Clinical Centre All inpatient services were moved to the Auckland City Hospital in 2003 and Green Lane Hospital became the Greenlane Clinical Centre treating outpatients and day surgery cases. Facilities In May 2023, the services provided by Te Whatu Ora at Green Lane Clinical Centre were focused on community, ambulatory & mental health services. These services included: rheumatology pain services sexual health diabetes management dermatology oral health immunology audiology allied health mental health Gallery References External links Greenlane Clinical Centre – Te Whatu Ora Auckland website Auckland Medical History Society – member publications
Palmerston North Hospital

Palmerston North Regional Hospital is the primary public hospital in Palmerston North, New Zealand. Located at the northern end of Ruahine Street, it is approximately 2 km (1.2 mi) northeast of The Square. The hospital is operated by Health New Zealand Te Whatu Ora, MidCentral District (formerly the MidCentral District Health Board) and primarily serves Palmerston North and the surrounding districts of Manawatū, Tararua and Horowhenua. As of 2020, the hospital has 354 inpatient beds. History The hospital first opened on 27 November 1893 with 25 inpatient beds across four wards, and was staffed by two doctors and three nurses. Ellen Dougherty was the hospital's first matron and became the world's first registered nurse on 10 January 1902, following the passage of the Nurses Registration Act 1901 by New Zealand Parliament. In 1968, a 20-year-old male patient died during surgery at the hospital in New Zealand's first recorded case of malignant hyperthermia (MH), a genetic disorder which causes a severe reaction in susceptible person when exposed to certain anaesthetic agents. It was later discovered that the deceased was part of a large family based in the Manawatū region with a long history of the MH gene. As a result, approximately one in every 200 surgeries at Palmerston North Regional Hospital involves a MH-susceptible patient, compared to between 1:10,000 and 1:250,000 worldwide. New Zealand's first (and only) MH testing centre was set up at Massey University in 1978, and was taken over the hospital's anaesthetic department in 1986. In early October 2024, the New Zealand Government allocated NZ$6 million to improve emergency department wait times and patient care and services at Palmerston North Hospital. Services Palmerston North Hospital is the sole major trauma centre in the MidCentral District and one of four in the lower North Island, alongside Hawke's Bay Hospital, Whanganui Hospital and Wellington Regional Hospital. The hospital has a 12-bed neonatal unit designated level 2A, equipped to care for babies above 28 weeks gestation and weighing over 1000 grams.

Okara Park

Okara Park, currently known commercially as Semenoff Stadium (previously known as Toll Stadium due to a sponsorship agreement) is a multi-purpose stadium in Whangārei, New Zealand. It is currently used mostly for rugby union matches and is the home stadium of Northland Rugby Union. The stadium is able to hold 18,500 people and was built in 1965. The park has recently had a $16m redevelopment with the new grandstand known as the Northland Events Centre being built. The new development has turned Okara Park into a multi-purpose Northland sports hub. Despite Okara Park only having a capacity for 18,500 people at a stretch, there was a match of Rugby Union in 1979 where around 40,000 people crammed into the stadium thanks to its large embankment. The occasion for this record crowd was the defence by the local side, North Auckland, of the prized Ranfurly Shield against Auckland. The stadium has held national games, including the New Zealand Māori rugby league team beating the Great Britain Lions 40–28 in 1996 and the New Zealand Māori rugby union team beating the Tongan national side 66–7 at Okara Park in 1998. It has also hosted matches between Northland and touring international sides such as the British & Irish Lions, and Tonga, Samoa and Fiji in the last two decades. In 2010, Okara Park hosted a match of the New Zealand Maori Rugby centenary series, with New Zealand Māori playing the New Zealand Barbarians in what was effectively an All Blacks trial match. The stadium was used as a venue for the 2011 Rugby World Cup. The stadium hosted two group stage matches, Tonga vs. Canada and Tonga vs. Japan. On 1 November 2014, the stadium hosted its first rugby league international when New Zealand played Samoa as part of the 2014 Rugby League Four Nations. New Zealand won the match 14–12. On 3 June 2017, the 2017 British & Irish Lions began their tour here with a 13–7 win against New Zealand Barbarians. References

Okara Park

Okara Park – wielofunkcyjny stadion znajdujący się w Whangarei w Nowej Zelandii służący przede wszystkim do rozgrywania meczów obydwu odmian rugby, odbywają się na nim również mecze piłki nożnej, hokeja na trawie oraz koncerty. Ze względów sponsorskich nosił nazwę Toll Stadium, a następnie Semenoff Stadium. Historia Zbudowany w 1965 roku, krótko po uzyskaniu przez Whangarei praw miejskich, stadion gościł m.in. mecze British and Irish Lions w latach 1966, 1983 i 1993. Był też w roku 1972 areną obrony Ranfurly Shield, kiedy to na stadionie znalazło się 40 000 widzów, przy czym liczba mieszkańców Whangarei wynosiła wówczas około 34 000. Na początku pierwszej dekady XXI w. stadion zaczął mieć problemy ze spełnieniem wymagań NZRU, a po ich zaostrzeniu drużynie Northland groziło rozgrywanie spotkań na innym obiekcie. Rady dystryktu i regionu w porozumieniu z miejscowym związkiem rugby zdecydowały więc w 2006 roku o modernizacji stadionu. Przebudowany obiekt był kluczowym argumentem w aplikacji Whangarei do organizowania meczów Pucharu Świata 2011. W latach 2009–2010 stadion przeszedł gruntowną przebudowę. Kosztem 18,5 mln NZD przygotowano nową murawę i oświetlenie, zmodernizowano jedną z trybun oraz zbudowano drugą wraz z towarzyszącą im infrastrukturą. 13 mln pochodziło od Northland Regional Council, 3 mln od Whangarei District Council, a pozostałe 2,5 mln przekazał rząd Nowej Zelandii na dostosowanie obiektu do wymogów rozgrywania Pucharu Świata 2011. Obecnie pojemność stadionu wynosi około 30 000 widzów, przy czym oficjalnie na meczach Pucharu Świata 2011 mogło przebywać 20 000 osób. Konstrukcja nowego stadionu była w roku 2010 nominowana do światowego konkursu architektonicznego World Architecture Festival w kategorii sport. Rugby Na co dzień obiekt użytkuje regionalna drużyna rugby union – Northland, okazjonalnie występuje tam zespół Blues, a w roku 2017 będzie gościć jeden z meczów tournée British and Irish Lions. Na stadionie rozegrano dwa mecze fazy grupowej Pucharu Świata 2011. Grają na nim także zespoły rugby league – Northern Swords i New Zealand Warriors, obiekt gościł również mecze międzynarodowe juniorów i seniorskie reprezentacje kraju – żeńską i męską Inne sporty Odbyły się na nim Mistrzostwa Świata U-20 w Piłce Nożnej 2015.

Whitiora Bridge

Whitiora Bridge is a prestressed concrete box girder bridge in Hamilton, New Zealand, spanning the Waikato River. It cost $2.35m, or $3.4m including the approach roads, and was opened at the start of a weekend of Centennial celebrations, on 11 February 1978, by representatives of Māori, Government and City, Dame Te Atairangikaahu, Venn Young and Ross Jansen. Whitiora Bridge was also a name once used for the Victoria St bridge over the Waitawhiriwhiri Stream, just to the north in Whitiora. A 1931 study looked at four possible bridges between the current Whitiora and Claudelands bridges, ranging in length from 430 ft (130 m) to 540 ft (160 m). The plans were shelved in 1933 when it was agreed to contribute 25% of the Fairfield Bridge cost. The 1969 Hamilton Transportation Study proposed the bridge, which was designed by Murray North Partners (who also designed Pukete sewer bridge and Rangiriri bridge) and built by Rope Construction Ltd (who also built Rakaia Bridge). It is on Taupō pumice alluvium and carries Boundary Rd at a 25 degree skew over the river and River Rd. At 260 m (850 ft), that makes it significantly longer than 133 m (436 ft) Claudelands, or 139 m (456 ft) Fairfield, but the alignment minimised tree damage and lined up with a new extension of Boundary Rd from Mill St/Ulster St. The east end of Boundary Rd was shown on the 1879 map of Claudelands, In 1915 there was a complaint about its lack of drainage and, in 1933, Jesmond Park was laid out at its river end, later crossed by the bridge. The bridge rests on four 1.8 m (5 ft 11 in) diameter octagonal piers, sunk 30 metres (98 ft) below the river, which are slightly narrower than the 5 spans of box girders. Sliding hinge joints in the landward spans give earthquake protection. Hydraulic shock transmission at the expansion joints will keep the sections of the bridge together in an earthquake. Cycle Action Waikato complained in 2014, after the 2 traffic lanes, cycle tracks and footpath were converted to 3 traffic lanes and a footpath in 2006. The City's 1972 design brief, required up to 4 traffic lanes. The bridge carries about 200 cyclists a day and a clip-on cycle lane has been considered, with $1m budgeted for 2028. During its design and construction the bridge was known as the Boundary Road Bridge and is still often referred to as such. 'Whitiora' was selected from a public suggestion, derived from 'Whiti', the call of the pipiwharauroa, and 'ora', meaning life, or health. Miropiko pā Archived 5 May 2017 at the Wayback Machine, beside River Rd, just south of the bridge, is the best preserved of a number of Hamilton pā sites.

Fergusson Bridge

Fergusson Bridge, also called the Low-level Bridge, is a pre-cast, prestressed concrete bridge in Cambridge, New Zealand, spanning the Waikato River. It was designed by North, Swarbrick, Mills & Westwood, cost £41,000 and opened in 1964. It was named after Governor-General Sir Bernard Fergusson. The bridge is on the site of the original 1870 bridge and the 1876 Red Bridge. References External links Google Street View from bridge
Tuakau railway station

Tuakau railway station was a railway station (now closed) in the town of Tuakau in the Waikato District of New Zealand. The station was on the North Island Main Trunk line, and opened on 20 May 1875. Originally it was called Tuakau Road. Tuakau was 34 mi 51 ch (55.7 km) south of Auckland (via Newmarket) and 36 mi 67 ch (59.3 km) (via Orakei). The station was rebuilt in 1910, opening on 10 September 1911, and closed to passengers on 14 March 1983. The station closed on 2 March 1986. The station was on the route of the former Waikato Connection, although it did not stop at Tuakau. The Hamilton-Auckland passenger service is to resume as Te Huia in 2020; and as the new service may stop at Tuakau, in 2018 the District Council allocated money for reopening the station. In 2020 reopening of the platform was put forward as part of a scheme to help the region recover from the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, at an estimated cost of $15m. History The railway, some 1.5 mi (2.4 km) north of the original Tuakau village, opened as part of the Auckland and Mercer Railway on 20 May 1875, built by Brogden & Co, when it was extended from Penrose. Trains had been able to reach Tuakau since at least February 1875. Tuakau wasn't shown in the 1875 timetable, but was in that of 1876. There was a stationmaster by June 1876 and fencing of the stationmaster's house was mentioned in September 1878. By 1884 Tuakau had a 4th class station, platform, cart approach, 60 ft (18 m) by 30 ft (9.1 m) goods shed (extended to 90 ft (27 m) in 1905 and sold in 1985), loading bank, cattle yards, stationmaster's house, urinals and a passing loop for 15 wagons. From 1887 to 1911 a Post Office was run by railway staff. The station was rebuilt in 1910, opening on 10 September 1911, From 1913 it was moved away from the station. A state house was added in 1956. The stockyards were sold in 1974 and Tuakau closed to passengers and all goods traffic, except in wagon lots, on 14 March 1983. By then there was an island platform, station building, footbridge, low-level loading bank, fitter's shed and New Zealand Co-op Dairy Co's siding at the north end. The station closed on 2 March 1986. Passenger numbers reached a peak during the Second World War, as shown in the graph and table below.

Gibbs Farm

Gibbs Farm ist ein in privater Hand befindlicher Skulpturenpark am südöstlichen Ufer des Kaipara Harbour auf der Nordinsel von Neuseeland. Geographie Das rund 1000 Acres große Gelände befindet sich rund 10,5 km nördlich der Südspitze des Kaipara Harbour und rund 44 km nordnordwestlich der City von Auckland. Der Eingang zu dem Gelände, der zwischen den kleinen Siedlungen Araparera und Kakanui liegt, ist vom New Zealand State Highway 16 aus zu erreichen. Geschichte 1991 erwarb der neuseeländische Geschäftsmann Alan Gibbs das rund 400 Hektar große Areal und widmete sich damit eine für ihn neue Art des Kunstsammelns. Bis zu diesem Zeitpunkt hatten er und seine Frau Jenny Gibbs bereits über drei Jahrzehnte Kunstwerke gesammelt und sich dabei hauptsächlich für abstrakte und minimalistisch Kunst interessiert. Doch mit Gibbs Farm eröffneten sich für den Sammler und seine Frau neue Möglichkeiten, die sie ausschöpften und, nun für sie neu, Kunstwerke direkt in Auftrag gaben. Die so entstandenen, Stand 2023 29 Skulpturen neuseeländischer Künstler und Künstler aus Übersee, finden sich über das gesamte Gelände verteilt. Skulpturen Quellen: Gibbs Farm Besuchsmöglichkeiten Der Skulpturenpark kann einmal monatlich nach vorheriger Anmeldung für Künstler, Bildungseinrichtungen, Wohltätigkeitsorganisationen und für die Öffentlichkeit geöffnet werden. Der Besuch ist kostenlos. Fotogalerie Einzelnachweise
Gibbs Farm

Gibbs Farm is an open-air sculpture park located in Kaipara Harbour, 47 kilometres (29 mi) north of Auckland, New Zealand. It contains the largest collection of large-scale outdoor sculptures in New Zealand. It is the private art collection of New Zealand businessman Alan Gibbs; however, it is open to the public on select days throughout the year, usually once per month, on a bookings-essential basis. Background After purchasing the 400 hectares (990 acres) of land for "The Farm" in 1991, Gibbs has collected major artworks by many artists from New Zealand and overseas. Much of the artwork is commissioned and, as such, incorporates elements of the landscape into the artwork. The farm also includes several exotic animals such as emus and giraffes, a garage where visitors can glimpse the Gibbs Aquada through the window, and a full-scale wild west town complete with a saloon (in the installation called Grief). Grief was built through the inspiration of Gibbs' architect son-in-law, Noel Lane, who now cares for the property with Gibbs' daughter Amanda. The town is on a private area of the farm and is not open to the public. The sculpture Electrum (for Len Lye), by Eric Orr, is the world's largest Tesla coil (11.6 metres or 38 feet tall) and numerous artworks are large enough to be seen from satellite imagery at high magnification. Gibbs is a major sponsor of ACT New Zealand, and most years, the party holds its annual conference at the Gibbs Farm.
