Auckland War Memorial Museum Viewshaft Overlay

Auckland War Memorial Museum is located in a prominent location within Auckland Domain. The museum is a landmark building with historic, community and architectural significance and is one of Auckland’s most popular vantage points. Sited on relatively low grounds in relation to the surrounding ridges, the view to and from the museum could be easily compromised or lost through the erection of tall buildings. The combination of landform, dominant building presence and setting contribute to the museum’s unique visual quality. Special visual protection measures are applied to secure the highly appreciated views and aspect qualities associated with this historic heritage place. These controls limit building height and include parapets, chimneys communications antennae, support structures, housing, building services components and advertising signs.奥克兰战争纪念博物馆（Auckland War Memorial Museum）坐落于奥克兰中央公园（Auckland Domain）的显要区位。该博物馆是兼具历史、社区与建筑价值的地标性建筑，同时也是奥克兰最热门的观景点位之一。其选址相较于周边山脊地势较低，一旦周边兴建高层建筑，博物馆内外的观景视野极易遭到遮挡乃至完全丧失。地貌特征、主体建筑的醒目存在与周边环境格局共同构成了该博物馆独一无二的视觉品质。为守护这一历史遗产地广受赞誉的观景视野与景观风貌，相关方采取了专项视觉保护措施。这些管控措施既限定建筑高度，同时也涵盖了女儿墙、烟囱、通信天线、支撑结构、附属用房、建筑设备构件以及广告招牌等各类管控对象。
