A render of the square gifted the name Te Komititanga, which features a whāriki or welcome mat among other mana whenua narratives.
Ngāti Whātua Ōrakei and the CRL’s mana whenua forum gifted the square’s name – Te Komititanga. It means “to mix” or “to merge” in te Reo.
Located near Britomart and the ferry terminal, the design of Te Komititanga reflects what was once there.
The more than 137,000 pieces of basalt pavers laid in the square incorporate mana whenua narratives.
