The suburb includes Waiwhetū Marae, a marae (tribal meeting-ground) of Taranaki Whānui ki te Upoko o te Ika and of Te Āti Awa. The marae, founded in 1960, includes the Arohanui ki te Tangata wharenui (meeting house). Waiwhetū Marae features a number of significant carvings and has associations with a number of notable Māori artists, including Rangi Hetet (who did much of the original carving for the marae), his wife Erenora Puketapu-Hetet and their daughter Veranoa Hetet. The marae is associated with Ihaia Puketapu. (en)
