Greenslade Reserve will soon enter stage two works later this month following a funding boost from the Government.
The upgrade will deliver a high-performance sports field, flourishing urban wetland, and recreational facilities including terraced seating, a BBQ area and a walkway.
Underground stormwater pipes will also be replaced to reduce the frequency and severity of flooding in and around the town centre.
Kaipātiki Local Board chair John Gillon said it is fantastic news that stage two of the work is able to proceed.
"This project supports the Northcote redevelopment, while also improving our park and environment,” he said.
“What will be delivered here will benefit the Northcote community for many years to come, and help to change the whole dynamic of the surrounding area.”
Stage two was confirmed following a funding boost through the Government’s “shovel-ready” infrastructure projects scheme, a scheme aimed to get the economy going post-COVID-19. Auckland Council and Kāinga Ora welcome this funding for the Northcote Development project, which includes works at Greenslade Reserve.
The commencement of stage two works will means that there will be no access to the reserve during construction. Construction is expected to begin this month and conclude next winter.

We have systems in place to ensure safety for all of our patients and staff.
This includes asking all visitors to the clinic to wear a face cover. Don’t have one? No worries, our staff will provide you with one.
Additionally, we would greatly appreciate limiting the number of support people you bring into the clinic to one (where possible). This helps us to ensure social distancing is maintained which helps to keep us all safe.

Labour leader Jacinda Ardern has announced Labour will make Matariki New Zealand’s twelth public holiday from 2022 if re-elected.
The new winter public holiday would fall at some point during the Matariki period, with an expectation that it would always happen on either a Monday or a Friday.
The policy announcement follows a series of public campaigns for the Matariki, which acts as the Māori New Year, to be recognised.
The exact timing of Matariki shifts every year as it relates to a star cluster reappearing and has traditionally varied between Iwi.
It would be the first new public holiday since the Third Labour Government made Waitangi Day a public holiday in 1973, although then Prime Minister Norman Kirk called it “New Zealand Day”.
“Matariki will be a distinctly New Zealand holiday and a time for reflection, celebration and to look to the future as we take increasing pride in our unique national identity,” Ardern said.
She said the struggling tourism sector could use the help of another holiday and noted the “long run” with no public holidays that currently happens between Queen’s Birthday in early June and Labour Day in late October.
“We don’t have many statutory holidays compared to other OECD countries and it would be good to break up the long run through winter,” Ardern said.

A move to free up more land for new builds is likely to see fewer driveways and garages in modern housing, in a move some say could have New Zealand looking like Coronation Street.
Councils across the country must scrap planning rules that require car parks to be put down near new housing or business developments, under newly released housing guidelines.
The change comes as the Government looks to encourage development, in part by freeing up land held up by car parks, under its new National Policy Statement for urban development.
Property developer Phil Robinson said scrapping car park rules was a “big change”, but he was unsure if it was a “big win”.
What do you think of having more new builds in your area with fewer driveways and garages?

It comes at the same time India has overtaken Brazil to become the second worst-Covid hit country.
In the last fortnight, 26 people have tested positive after returning from India, 20 of them from one flight alone.
Do you think the government needs to be stricter at the border?
