This project by post graduate student at the University of Auckland, Joshua Howie (Masters in Architecture and Heritage Conservation) was commissioned by the Auckland branch of the New Zealand Founders Society. The scope of this project is two-fold: first, to review existing literature on Auckland’s Special Character Areas (SCAs) and identify the advantages and importance of such systems, and second, to compare the contents of the SCAs to international instances of equivalent urban fabric.
