Navigate Tairāwhiti is a programme of 5 projects delivered together with tangata whenua and partner organisations.
The programme weaves together significant sites through storytelling and design to showcase our region's unique culture and heritage of first arrivals and great navigators.
Both public and privately owned spaces are upgraded to include stories and elements to reflect the exceptional navigational feats of the first iwi who arrived around the thirteenth century and James Cook who arrived in 1769.
The programme ensures people experience a unique point of difference that's distinctly Tairāwhiti wherever you go in our district.
The 5 projects are:
• Titirangi maunga restoration
• Titirangi summit redevelopment
- Te Taumata o Titirangi
• Inner harbour upgrade
• Tupapa - historic interpretations
• Cook Landing site redevelopment - Puhi Kai Iti
