A spatial structure plan is a 3-dimensional design which defines the strategic built outcome for a place. It does this by defining the street and block patterns together with building envelopes relative to the landform and existing development. It does not deal with the detailed architectural design but it does relate building areas to their proposed uses such as commercial versus residential. It has the capacity to provide for alternative uses or building forms. The spatial system is a key component in establishing identity and variety. This occurs by the way in which the streets are organised over the land relative to human sight lines as defined by the buildings. Good spatial structure plans build in “identity” without the need to “force” the architecture. 9 V R D D PL CAVENDISH DRV R O OSEWOOD SHARKEY ST F R Y ULTIMA PL L L DERRIMORE HTS O FIELD PL H ER ROCHAS PL BAK SIKKIM CRES O S T E R DIORELLA DRMONDE PL L E Y W ANCONA LANE A GLADDING PL Y RONWOOD AVE JUVENA PL T BIRCHLEA R V C L P O G E N I R M LA E F L RISE C S G N LEYT I K RSHAM WAY AME ON WAY WILISA PL A SI NK RISE A REDOUBT RD B L P PIPER PL O C T H T CLIST CRES I E E F M T L A I N PA R NEY WAY I PUT S DAVIES AVE E R A N S ON RD O M S WIRI STATI M Y T H MCC owned land at completion of interchange could provide housing opportunities D R B V O B EIN A G PL R RT R O W WOOD C C LAKE M L EL IF IA F G E R VE P L FAI RCHILD AVE L C PELARGONIUM TCE IA M A AD C A DE HAVILLAND DR M LAMBIE DRV SH20 offramp forms a barrier between Wiri and Manukau City Centre Y AN WA ANE R EVERGLADE DRV ER V IT R D H D E R YT M AN SM CORREA CRTS O M BALTIC PL KERI ANNE PL PISTACHIO PL Woodside East - relationship of school to street SOUTHERN MOTORWAY ISLAY PL - poor connectivity ARONIA WAY - privitised Puhinui edges - low visability T - one entry point SOUTHERN MARBLE PL V T E A KIRKLOW PL GREVILLEA CR BANYAN DR TOURMALIN PL K MOTORWAY Woodside West IONA PL G CALEY CRT R V E - lack of connectivity INVERELL AVE IXIA PL - limited services and amenity Z GR I R ANITE PL C O PAULOWNIA PL - interface with Puhinui is limited N P L DRUCES RD KIMDALE PL JOVAL PL PACIFIC EVENTS CENTRE DR CELADON PL TOPAZ PL MCC owned land E ILIAD PL LEVEN LANE TREVOR HOSKEN DRV EARL RICHARDSON AV KELLOW PL DEODAR PL PL T PL LIA LAU RE Southern motorway noise impacts on Rata Vine housing AMETHYS CONNECTION E-W FELICIA PL CRAIL CRT TILIA PL SIGNIFICANT AZALEA PL HOBILL AVE Rata Vine RATA VINE ENID PL BEGONIA PL - one entry point, access issues DRV ID E S IA P L - introverted layout KERRS RD PEG - little street activity UERO PL RISE - open space is cut o f f from residential dwellings RD A CR EUGENIA ON E ER S UNNAMED - safety G Y WA RA TE AN ALICANTE AVE P MANRESA CL PALOMA CRT Puhinui landscape - how should this be treated?
