Revealing Takapuna- Ainsley Chapman

**View in Full Screen

Takapuna is of a sub-regional scale. It is a lively centre with large numbers of largest activity base on the North Shore. large buildings are starting to take over expecially at the northern end of the beach. This hsows its identity as a major urban centre. Takapunas main street turns its back to the beach - making the beach highly under ultilised. Sides streeets radiate out from a central triangle. Takapuna is made up of a variety of different building styles. This makes it look very fragmented with no dominant architectural character.
