Mataukareao
Hāpai Commercial is proud to announce that our new commercial building in central Ōtepoti / Dunedin was blessed by mana whenua and formally opened last week.
Mataukareao is a six-storey A-grade commercial office building in Ōtepoti, delivered in close partnership with mana whenua, Te Rūnanga o Ōtākou (Ōtākou). Featuring four levels of premium office space and two levels of car parking - including public parking operated by Dunedin City Council - the project is targeting a 5-star Green Star Built rating.
This marks a forward-looking investment designed to drive long-term value, sustainability, and tenant appeal, with Pacific Radiology as the anchor tenant.
The name Mataukareao was gifted by Ōtākou, acknowledging the site’s history as a waka landing place and mahinga kai, reflecting the deep relationship between the rūnanga, Otago Harbour, Ōtepoti, and the wider region.
Mataukareao has been designed for long-term performance. Features such as EV charging, public transport proximity, and high acoustic performance make it the most modern, adaptive, and efficient workplace in Ōtepoti.
Mataukareao represents the Hāpai model of partnering with mana whenua, iwi and hapū to combine capacity with property rights, and create collective value.
