SUBJECT SITE

The subject site is located on the corner of Great North Road (arterial route) and King Street in Grey
Lynn. Dean Street borders the southern boundary.
SITE CONTEXT
The site is bordered by commercial activity on the northern, western and eastern boundaries. The
southern boundary is characterised by residential villas and mid maturity front yard gardens
DESIGN INTENT
GREAT NORTH ROAD / NORTHERN BOUNDARY
The landscaping in front of the cafe area will provide separation from Great North Road and provide
amenity for pedestrians and cafe customers. The landscaping consists of Dietes grandiflora which will
grow to 1.2m in the 400mm wide garden bed provided. The linear form of the Griselinia littoralis hedge
compliments the architecture and provides additional amenity to the street frontage in an otherwise
restricted urban space.
KING STREET / EASTERN BOUNDARY
The structure's eastern elevation will be softened by the introduction of a contemporary 'Green Shroud'
treatment. A green shroud is a cable system fixed to the architecture enabling the climber 'Star
Jasmine' to screen the building. Dietes grandiflora will provide an attractive landscape interface at the
base of the climbers.

DEAN STREET / SOUTHERN BOUNDARY

The southern boundary landscaping exhibits a dramatic 'Greenwall' of evergreen Ficus pumilia climber
to disguise the truck access wall. Where allowed, this is further assisted with Titoki specimen trees
trimmed to suit proximity to buildings. To break up the area a 4m Pittosporum hedge is planted in the
narrow garden bed with a stretch of Lancewood. In most cases the garden beds are underplanted with
Pseudopanax 'Cyral Watson' and shade tollerate amenity species.
