Auckland Council
Piha, Auckland
June – October 2014
Auckland Council engaged Cassidy Construction as their main contractor for this project, which involved demolishing an existing toilet block in the Piha Domain and constructing new architecturally designed amenities on a similar footprint.
The new two-level precast building houses public toilets set back from the main road behind a row of pōhutukawa trees, with multiple toilets and shower facilities at the rear accessed from the adjoining campground.
The contract also included construction of boardwalks and outdoor furniture, and landscaping the surrounding area.
As this busy recreational destination about 38km west of the city is not connected to town water supply, we undertook extensive civil excavation and retaining work to allow for installation of large underground water retention tanks.
Throughout the project we were careful to minimise the impact of our work on the existing landscape and the local community. Despite exposure to the harsh west coast environment, the robust construction of these public conveniences has stood the test of time.
