The accolade has been won under the umbrella of the association with the project funded by Albert-Eden Local Board.
Purple Flag was launched in the United Kingdom in 2009 by the Association of Town and City Management as a robust accreditation with annual assessments.
Today more than 100 destinations across Europe and the United Kingdom share the status.
But the Dominion Rd precinct is the first destination in the southern hemisphere to achieve Purple Flag status.
The accreditation process started in October 2019 and was finished in February 2021.
Dominion Road Business Association Manager Gary Holmes said having Purple Flag accreditation will further help Dominion Road achieve its vision of being a "world within a street".

Unfortunately I do not like my brother Harry and so I need a home of my own with no other pets, just me and my family. I do like to be outside a lot as I feel comfortable there but will come in and lay on your bed and get cuddles and food. I need someone to be patient with me until I get settled. If you like to meet me talk to Karen on 0274984700. 🐾

Auckland moved back into a week-long level 3 lockdown on Sunday after two fresh community cases of Covid-19 were discovered.
But University of Auckland associate professor Susanna Trnka says if people no longer feel a sense of urgency they will be less compelled to follow the rules.
"During the first lockdown it was understood that extraordinary times require extraordinary measures,” the social anthropologist said.
"But as it becomes lockdown two, three and four, the sense of the urgency has shifted and isn't so palpable."
Senior lecturer Sarah Cowie, who is an expert on psychology and behaviour, said it was "certainly a possibility" that people could become more complacent during recurring lockdowns.
“There's evidence from places overseas that have been flung in and out of lockdown that people do become a little bit more complacent the more you have,” she said.
“If we are doing things in line with level 3 and not seeing the benefits of that, it might feel discouraging."

Strong and unusual currents and unpredictable surges near the shore are expected in the following areas. This means a threat to beach, harbour, estuary and small boat activities.
West Coast of Auckland
Manukau Harbour

The Gribblehirst Park Rugby field enjoyed a brief spell of being open, but the fences are back up around the field. Looks like the major reconstruction was a disaster.

It's been heartwarming to hear stories from across the North Island of people taking others into their home and sharing a cup of tea together or fixing them a meal.
