Auckland Council wants to develop the area around Aotea Square and they want your input to make it happen. Right now the so-called Aotea Quarter is mix of theatres, galleries, restaurants, shops and car parks as well as a growing number of residential properties but according to the council it could fulfill a vital role as an arts and cultural hub.
