Hospitality
“Tap into the drawcard of the established Daikoku Japanese Restaurant and position your venue alongside, with three additional hospitality spaces available from 65 sqm to 188 sqm.
Direct street-level access off Customs Street West, an impressive 5.8 m stud height in part, polished floors and elevated spaces create a dramatic setting ideal for bespoke bars, restaurants or cafes.
Centralised mechanical services and shared amenities keep fit-out simple and cost-effective, so you can focus on concept, branding and experience.”
Make it stand out
“Secure, purpose-built private office suites sit right off the ground floor lobby, fully fitted and ready for your team of 1 to 4 people to move in and get working.
This is not a high-cost, cookie-cutter membership model; generous suite sizes let you create your own dedicated business environment with genuine privacy and presence.
High-stud ceilings and contemporary design are complemented by shared amenities including a lounge, boardroom, kitchen/bar, hyper-fibre and facial recognition access, delivering a polished plug-and-play office solution.”
“Market Lane offers four turnkey office suites from 230 sqm to 373 sqm, minimising upfront capital outlay and accelerating your move-in timeline.
Located on Level 2 with a common foyer and new lift, these suites deliver an impressive arrival experience for staff and clients alike.
With a 4 metre stud, authentic heritage character, upgraded HVAC and new shared amenities including a lounge and bar, they provide a cool, design-led alternative to traditional corporate waterfront office space.”
Waterfront Auckland
Sitting directly between Viaduct Harbour and Commercial Bay, Market Lane enjoys a premium waterfront position at the heart of Auckland’s CBD
Commercial Bay is Auckland’s newest and most sought-after corporate destination, while Viaduct Harbour is the city’s premier hospitality precinct, home to over 30 bars and restaurants. This complementary combination places Market Lane in the centre of both business and lifestyle.
Immediately to the east, the proposed Downtown West development will introduce two new towers offering office, apartment, and hotel accommodations, further elevating the precinct’s profile. The planned removal of the Hobson Street overbridge and new vehicle and pedestrian layouts will significantly improve access, visibility and overall presentation.
Just a five-minute walk from the new CRL-enhanced Britomart train station, the main bus interchange and multiple surrounding parking buildings, Market Lane offers excellent current and future connectivity for staff, clients and visitors.
Where commerce began
Originally constructed in 1917, the Auckland City Markets Building sat in the heart of the city’s original markets quarter and housed some of Auckland’s earliest produce auction houses, including Produce Markets, Turners & Growers and Radley & Co.
For more than 80 years, it thrived as a vibrant dockside hub where much of the city’s early commerce took shape.
Inspired by this rich neighbourhood history, Market Lane is being reimagined to carefully balance its heritage character with contemporary design and modern amenities.
The refurbishment will celebrate the building’s distinctive concrete construction and generous ceiling heights, restoring it close to its original form while creating a striking, future-ready environment for today’s occupiers.
From produce market to vibrant business hub, proudly carrying a rich legacy since 1917.
