The number of cruise ship visit per year is expected to increase from 73 t0 100, bring in more tourists and more retail activities in the waterfront area.
Auckland's historic Queens Wharf will be reclaimed for public use next April and the two 100-year-old cargo sheds could be restored for a cruise ship terminal and "party central" for the 2011 Rugby World Cup.

The ports company, which uses the wharf for parking imported used cars and stacking boxes of bananas and pineapples, began restricting public access in the late 1980s.
Under a deal that will see the ports company continue to service cruise ships and maintain the wharf, the 2ha site of prime waterfront land will be made available for public access once again in April next year.
