The Pacifica, 57-story skyscraper in Auckland, New Zealand
The Pacifica is a 57-story residential tower in central Auckland with a height of 178.7 meters and a distinctive stepped glass facade. The building contains apartments, vertical gardens, and shared facilities distributed across its floors.
Construction began in 2017 and was completed in 2020, establishing it as New Zealand's tallest residential building. The completion marked a significant moment in Auckland's urban development.
The stepped glass facade references the rolling forms of ocean waves and reflects the water that surrounds Auckland on three sides. People walking past notice how the building seems to echo the natural rhythms of the harbor.
The tower is centrally located and easily accessible by public transport, with good pedestrian access from surrounding streets. The ground-level retail and dining areas are open to the general public during business hours.
The building includes a 20-meter indoor lap pool and several resident lounges spread across different levels. An Italian delicatessen on the ground level serves fresh food, coffee, and wine to visitors and residents alike.
