A park featuring a star compass on the coast between Napier and Hastings has won the New Zealand Institute of Landscape Architects’ Te Karanga o te Tui award.
Waitangi Regional Park and Atea a Rangi Star Compass was developed over three years by Hawke’s Bay Regional Council, local iwi, consultants, and other partners to restore the coastal wetland and tidal channels.
