Richard Reid has published an article on Fletcher Residential’s proposed redevelopment of Three Kings Quarry. The article provides an overview of Fletcher’s design within the context of the historic volcanic landscape of Te Tātua a Riukiuta (Three Kings Volcano), the city’s plans for residential intensification and the expectations of the local community. Richard also outlines his practice’s alternative design which was commissioned by Puketapapa Local Board in 2015. 

The article covers the complex regulatory processes, provides comparative analysis of the different design approaches and comments on the poor outcome if Fletcher’s current plan is built.
