Big red building just before Kaukapakapa - what is it?

[madkiwi]

Coming back from Warkworth today along SH16, anyone know what the big red fence/building is. It is just before Kaukapakapa.

[madkiwi]

Coming back from Wellsford today on SH16, noticed big red shed/fence or something, seems oval in shape when looking end on. Anywone know what is. It is in the area of Kaukapakapa, hard to miss heading west. Looked on Google earth and google maps but can see it there. On google earth there is a light square just over that area, is it clasified?

Fire station.

Christ knows but perhaps you should start another thread. Maybe in online trading?

Yes correct, stop and have a good look next time, there are more sculptures to be seen, they are massively huge.

Aye? How is this "just before" cowcop? The sculptures in the Plant Centre at the lookout are closer than Gibbs's sculptures.
We've gone from outside Kaukapakapa to just South of West Coast Rd/Woodcocks

Yeah they are about 14ks north of Kaukap or, 1k south of Woodcocks rd.

Exactly right. Gibbs place is much further north of Kaukapakapa than the OP seems to suggest. The sculpture gardens have had a recent revamp so may have somthing like that there just South of the lookout. Haven't been North in ages... will have to go for a ride and have a look.:scooter:
