Auckland's post‐suburban landscape is associated with new mixed‐use apartment developments. When located in former industrial sites, these emergent residential and retail spaces constitute new‐build gentrification and carry the potential to rupture existing people/place dynamics. This article examines material and socio‐cultural processes associated with the redevelopment of an industrial quarry in Three Kings, Auckland. It is argued that the redevelopment constitutes a physical refashioning of a former industrial space located within a traditional working‐class community. The development involves a remaking of the material and socio‐cultural fabric of the neighbourhood and aligns with new‐build gentrification practices.
