Examination of the landscape local to Wanaka with particular reference to the development of Pembroke Park : a research study [dissertation] submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Diploma of Landscape Architecture in the University of Canterbury

Abstract

The Department of Lands and Survey, and the Wanaka Islands Domain Board, are concerned that the scenic character of the landscape local to Wanaka is retained whilst catering for increasing recreational pressure and changing resource uses.

To achieve this aim a generalized evaluation of the landscape, its desirable features, and the problems of its visual content is to be carried out. Detailed development proposals for Pembroke Park are to be prepared so that development relates to adjacent foreshore reserve lands and to the overall framework of the landscape.
