Whether the whole complex is being demolished or not I don't know., but here the centre block of three is being demolished. The green grass is what was sections...
The electrical supply substation built into the Lion Breweries Canterbury Draught brewery in St Asaph Street, Christchurch. Now the whole complex is being demolished due to earthquake damage.

A bit of the now demolished QEII (Queen Elizabeth II) Park running track in the "Gap Filler" on the old Deka site in New Brighton (last occupied by a charity barn before a major fire and subsequent demolition).
Being prepared for removal. Is in red zone so has to go.d The house had minimal damage, but the land it was on was deemed to be no good - red zoned.
The footpath besides ANZAC Drive and the Bexley Wetlands. Liquefaction silt from well underground has flowed to the surface. Photo taken less than three hours after the 4:35am earthquake.
Full of weeds after nearly two years of neglect. First time I have been in Victoria Square in over two years.
A week ago this building was intact, now partially demolished. Will be an empty site in a week or two.
A very different looking Castle Rock to what was there pre earthquakes.

Another city walk around, this time with my brother-in-law from Auckland. Also went to the Quake City exhibition in the city organised by the Canterbury Museum. First fine day for a while.
The historic Deans Homestead 23 months ago. Now destroyed in the Canterbury earthquake of September 4th 2010. This photo was taken on the PSNZ 2008 Southern Regional Photographic Convention bus trip.
Only it is worse this time! As from Wednesday I won't have car access to the property, nor the street, nor one of the neighbouring streets - for a month at least! A second attempt to do a sewer repair after the earthquakes - yes I know they were 3 to 2½ years ago!

The seismic survey truck T-Rex (from University of Texas) was in Bexley and Pacific Park a few days ago and may have left this calling card on the front lawn of my old "red zone" house. Obviously the geotechs will know what it means.
