The Lake Road Apartments project for Kāinga Ora in Northcote, Auckland is a public housing complex, built to a 6 Homestar rating standard.
The 5,939m2
site which previously held 9 individual houses, is now home to 85 new families. The complex comprises 3 separate 6-level apartment blocks, with a total of 85 individual apartments.
There is a mix of 1, 2, and 3-bedroom homes, 17 of which are step-free and accessible. A playground is included in the complex along with administration spaces on the ground floor for the delivery of community services. The ground floor is now also home to the Kāinga Ora area office.
The team worked together and delivered a defect-free project for Kāinga Ora and maintained an impressive safety record, with no serious injuries or lost time incidents. The project's success is a testament to the Leighs team's ability to overcome challenges and deliver high-quality work.
