SOUTHGATE, ENVISIONING A SHOPPING MECCA
Located in the heart of Takanini, South Auckland, Southgate is a successful large format retail shopping centre comprised of 21,000 square metres. Identified as a mixed use node under the Auckland Regional Growth Strategy, Urban Partners was one of the first developers to move into the area, opening Southgate Shopping Centre in 2004. Southgate is fully leased with predominantly major national retailers.
QUEENSGATE, THE START OF A RETAIL LEGACY
One of our earliest projects, Queensgate established the foundation for Urban Partners' prominence in retail development. Now owned and operated by Westfield, Queensgate began as a joint development with Foodtown Supermarket in 1985. Urban Partners' expertise was instrumental in enabling Foodtown to open it’s flagship supermarket in Lower Hutt and driving expansion of the centre over the next 15 years.
