JLL and Match Realty are proud to present an outstanding new mixed-use development in Ponsonby, one of the Auckland city fringe’s most exciting neighbourhoods.
Pompallier on Ponsonby, at the corner of Pompallier Tce and Ponsonby Rd, is a new five-level retail, hospitality and residential offering brought to life by Fearon Hay Architects and Urban Collective.
The location in the heart of Ponsonby Road, a heavily trafficked shopping precinct, is convenient to the CBD, motorway on-ramps, and easily accessible by public transport.
Pompallier on Ponsonby will appeal to businesses seeking a flagship presence in an affluent Auckland area, or those looking for a brand-new space to set up shop.

Rodd and Gunn, including a Lodge Bar, is the anchor tenancy and will be the premium retailer’s flagship New Zealand store across 452sq m of retail space and 80sq m of al fresco dining.
Another premium international retailer has signed on in a 323sq m space, with another 144sq m area now available and suited to a fashion or retail store.
Two additional spaces have been assigned for hospitality, one over 157sq m that includes a 93sq m covered terrace, and another 67sq m space that features laneway seating, perfect as a high-end café or bakery.
Businesses that secure these new sites will benefit from the reputation of Ponsonby as a premier Auckland suburb, plus take advantage of the future residential and hotel operation above the ground floor.
There will be two penthouses, as well as 10 apartments once development is complete, with four already sold.
The developers have held the release of the hospitality and office space until certainty of commencement and completion dates were obtained.
With building consents imminent and the contractor appointed, the project is expected to start shortly.
Opportunities are now open for those who act fastest to secure their place at Pompallier on Ponsonby, ready to open by Christmas 2025.
JLL has been appointed alongside Match Realty to market the retail and hospitality spaces for lease.
JLL retail sales and leasing director Ranesh Parmar points to Ponsonby's variety and reputation, as well as the tenancy with Rodd and Gunn, as drivers for the development.
“Ponsonby is one of Auckland’s premier shopping and dining destinations, featuring some of the city’s best restaurants and bars, as well as flagship stores for leading retailers,” says Parmar.
“Pompallier on Ponsonby will be a premium mixed-use space that brings more of New Zealand’s top businesses into one desirable location, in addition to the high-quality retailers that will be a major drawcard to the area.
"Rodd and Gunn, plus its famous Lodge Bar, offers a desirable mix of retail and hospitality that Kiwi shoppers are drawn to – another string to the bow of this outstanding location.”
Match Realty director Mike Hammer says developments of this scale take into consideration the catchment needs of the area in which they are being created.
“Fearon Hay Architects, leading the design of the asset, has tastefully brought heritage elements to the fore, important to the character and history of Ponsonby,” says Hammer.
“Redefining the existing building on the corner of Pompallier Tce and Ponsonby Rd was critical to making this project meaningful to the community, a nod to the historic Three Lamps area of the suburb.
"By honouring the heritage of the area, in combination with modern design elements, Pompallier on Ponsonby fosters sustainability at its core and creates a true laneway experience.”
Over 70 basement carparks including a number of EV charging stations, a combination of private and public spaces across retail, hospitality and office in the five-level building, and a 100 per cent NBS rating are just some of the features that make Pompallier on Ponsonby an unmissable opportunity for businesses seeking a new home or place to expand, he says.
Future high-end residential developments will bolster existing foot traffic in the suburb and make Pompallier on Ponsonby a true community hub.
