Auckland Council votes in favour of intensified housing plan

finally some density near the train lines. sick of living in a sprawling car-dependent mess

Noah Bennett2026-07-21T06:42:36.000Z

exactly. watch the affordable housing 'requirement' get waived for every single project

Noah Bennett2026-07-21T07:17:36.000Z

spotted the property developer's account ^

Noah Bennett2026-07-21T06:49:36.000Z

watch property developers rub their hands together. this is just a giveaway to mates

Luca Reid2026-07-21T07:00:36.000Z

yes! more homes, less sprawl. about time the council grew a spine

Leo McKenzie2026-07-21T07:10:36.000Z

10-15 storeys in my suburb? nah get stuffed. we don't have the infrastructure

Ella Thompson2026-07-21T07:26:36.000Z

as long as they actually build the rapid transit to go with it. tired of waiting for buses that never show

Ella Thompson2026-07-21T08:23:36.000Z

same here, mate. 20 mins late every day. if they want density they gotta fix the buses first

Chloe Martin2026-07-21T07:30:36.000Z

lol so the same council that can't fix potholes is gonna approve 15-storey buildings. what could go wrong

Luca Reid2026-07-21T07:49:36.000Z

council can't even keep the water pipes working. but sure, add 10,000 more people to the grid

Aria Wilson2026-07-21T07:42:36.000Z

six storeys near town centres is nothing. try Tokyo or London. wtf is nz so scared of height

Aria Wilson2026-07-21T07:52:36.000Z

bet the nimbys are already forming a facebook group. *insert shocked pikachu*

Chloe Martin2026-07-21T08:49:36.000Z

nimbys? we just don't want our suburb turned into a concrete jungle. what's wrong with that

Leo McKenzie2026-07-21T08:02:36.000Z

yeah easy to say when u don't live next to a construction site for 5 years. piss off

Aria Wilson2026-07-21T08:32:36.000Z

lol imagine thinking more housing supply is bad. keep renting then champ

Aria Wilson2026-07-21T08:44:36.000Z

construction noise beats living in a shoebox rental for $700/week. cope
