Auckland Council has just bought 1.6 hectares of land bordering the Auckland Botanic Gardens to extend the park, at a cost of over $12 million dollars. The land was originally marketed to property developers, but the council said it needed to act to protect the park for future generations. Jack Hobbs is the manager of the Auckland Botanic Gardens and the Auckland Domain.
