Boy oh boy.

This has been a growing issue in the news and is currently the most contentious issue in all news media.

The choices at the moment in the order of perceived preference are:
1. CBD Waterfront over either Bledisloe or Marsden wharf
2. Eden Park
3. North Harbour
4. Carlaw Park
5. Waterfront on the old tank farm
6. Mt Smart - aka Ericsson Stadium
7. Manukau Harbour
6. Victoria Park

As you can see there just too many choices.

Some renderings...

1. CBD Waterfront.

2. Eden Park

7. Manukau Harbour

NZ Herald 2006/11/11

Governments made its decision and chosen the waterfront, but has thrown the ball back into the Auckland court given the citizens of Auckland 2 weeks to make the final decision on Waterfront, Eden Park or they'll take it to Jade Stadium in Christchurch.
