Between 1930 and 1932 Fred Tschopp worked on a landscape architecture project for Rotorua, a long-standing tourist destination. This was his largest project in New Zealand and included an inventory of the existing Rotorua borough, a 51-page report of recommendations and a series of plans for certain areas. This is his plan for the approach to the Whakarewarewa thermal reserve. As specified in his report, this area was planted with New Zealand natives (cabbage trees and flax). Tschopp's streetscape is largely intact in the 21st century, though most of the cabbage trees have been replaced by exotic birch trees.
