Northcote's newest pocket park is expected to be open in early June.
The new park on the corner of Richardson Place and Whakamua Parade in the new Northcote development is tentatively called "Richardson Park", however an official Te Reo name is expected to be gifted by Mana Whenua for the park in due course.

The design includes in-ground trampolines, a basket swing, sheltered BBQ area, children’s tables, an artificial turf area made from recycled materials, an open grass area, and new plantings.

The new park connects to the Te Ara Awataha greenway via a series of stepping blocks and balance beams along Whakamua Parade.

Thanks to Kāinga Ora, Piritahi, TOBA and Isthmus for developing the park as part of the Northcote Development. The park is expected to transfer to the Kaipatiki Local Board at a later date.

Does anyone want to lay a wager of $50 that they will rip it up again to rebuild it in the next 2 years because the PLANNING STRUCTURE OF AUCKLAND COUNCIL IS HOPELESS!!!

Father has 'no regret' over helping brothers, despite spine injury that will cost $85k to fix

Kia ora neighbours. Reece Leitch just wants to play with his young daughters, but a back injury – that will cost around $85,000 to fix – has left him unable to be as involved in their playtime as he once was.

The 27-year-old, from Hillcrest first started having back problems at 10 years old, when he started helping to care for his older brothers, Ryan and Blake, who have muscular dystrophy.

As the only able-bodied man in his family, Leitch would do a lot of the physically demanding tasks, including lifting his brothers in and out of their wheelchairs, beds and the bathroom.

“There’s no doubt, or regret, that looking after my brothers from a young age had an effect on the health of my spine,” he said.

After suffering two slipped discs last year, Leitch is now reliant on medication for his “constant pain”.

Leitch needs disc replacement surgery, but ACC will no longer fund his treatment.

He’s now taking his bid for treatment overseas and hopes a purpose-built spine clinic in Germany will be able to fix his back and get him playing with his daughters and playing sports again.

Kia ora neighbours, an Auckland man is offering a reward to anyone who can reunite him with $170,000 stolen from the house bus of his dad, a former burglar.

Jay Dudson, the son of burglar turned home security expert Dan Dudson, said after his father died in June 2020, the house bus he had been living in, in Auckland's Millwater, was burgled.

After almost a year with no leads, Dudson decided to offer a reward of $10,000 for the safe return of the money, which had been stored in an old green ammunition cannister.

Dudson said his father had spent a large portion of his life in prison, and had been a “professional” burglar until he decided to turn his life around in his 40s.
