Te Uru Waitakere is a new art gallery adjoining Lopdell House, a heritage-listed building in Titirangi, Auckland. The front facade of the new gallery is pulled back from the street to lead people into the main entry, and to bring natural light into teaching spaces on the lower levels. The stair bridge on the upper level crosses to the rooftop terrace on the old building. The new gallery was designed by Mitchell & Stout Architects.
