Summary

Eastview Reserve in Glen Innes and Barry Curtis Park in Flat Bush, Auckland, have been honored with prestigious awards at the Recreation Aotearoa Parks Awards. Eastview Reserve, once a drainage area, has transformed into a community hub with a playground, fitness stations, and a learn-to-ride track, all centered around Ōmaru Creek. Barry Curtis Park, formerly farmland, has been revitalized with a flexible pavilion, a reimagined Wetlands Building, and a focus on the historical Ōtara Creek. Both parks have been recognized for their innovative designs, community engagement, and cultural significance, setting a standard for future park developments in Auckland.
