Whakamoe tai, whakamoe ahiahi, whakamoe te ingoa Atkinson Building ki tua, ki tua e hai!
Nau mai te ao awatea, whakahō taku takapou a Ngāmotu House ki te whai ao, ki te ao mārama. 
Tihei mouri ora.   
 
For over nine months the old Atkinson Building on Devon Street West in New Plymouth has been under wraps while building strengthening and a complete refurbishment takes place.
 
Early this morning Te Kotahitanga o Te Atiawa and representatives from Ngāti Te Whiti hapū announced Ngāmotu House as the building’s new name and also revealing its new exterior design.
 
The new name is in recognition of an old hapū, which resided in the area which preceded Ngāti Te Whiti of today. It is also the name of the culturally significant Ngā Motu Islands, and is a name now more widely used for New Plymouth.
 
The exterior façade represents a korowai of high status that wraps around the building. Each pattern on the design has a story integrated within it.

At last week's Property Update we launched Pukekura - The Parade, our 35 modern townhouse development in New Plymouth's CBD.

These high-spec townhouses are a mix of:

• 15 x 2-bed, 19 x 3-bed and 1 x 4-bedroom homes.
• Each townhouse will have a private internal courtyard, onsite car parking and open plan kitchen and living.

Te Kotahitanga o Te Atiawa recently held an online wānanga to talk about the rebuild of the North Taranaki Visitor Centre. This project intends to strengthen our identity, connection and visibility on our mounga for Te Atiawa.

This wānanga was for uri and an opportunity for us all to come together and share our dreams, aspirations and kōrero about what this new Te Atiawa whare could look, feel and sound like. It was also a chance to meet the project team who will be bringing this project to fruition.

This online wānanga followed the first kanohi ki te kanohi hui held at Muru Raupatu Marae at the end of February 2023.

Last week Te Kotahitanga o Te Atiawa hosted two Property Updates, in Waitara and New Plymouth, which were well attended by our uri.

We Livestreamed and recorded our New Plymouth event which you can view by clicking the link below. We also launched our Pukekura - The Parade development at this event.

We would like to thank all who attended and also Pou Arahi for Te Kōwhatu Tū Moana Trust John Doorbar and the team from Ka Uruora.
