It’s hard to believe that this photo was taken on Manchester Street (corner of Hereford and Manchester). This area has been recently grassed over as it will be part of the ‘green frame’ for the new city.

Another beautiful day in Christchurch today, which could be the ‘calm before the storm’ as we have the remnants of a tropical cyclone heading our way this weekend. The forecast is for heavy rain on Sunday, which is not exactly what Christchurch needs after the floods last week. So with…
