Continue reading →: New Building Going up on Kilmore StreetThis building has been going up for a few months – it’s on Kilmore Street and can also be seen from Colombo and Peterborough Street. It has some fairly impressive steel beams.

Continue reading →: Rock on East Side in LinwoodSpotted on Linwood Avenue – a space for people to hang out, and pretty much every time I drive by there are people using this space. This is a Gap Filler project with corporate sponsors. You can learn more about the project at the Gap Filler website – http://www.gapfiller.org.nz/mar-27-rock-on-eastside/

I was aware of the garden at the front, but had not realised this little seated area had been added. I think it’s so lovely and colourful and I particularly…

Continue reading →: Square Re-Opens with Narrow CorridorToday, a narrow corridor opened up in the Square, linking Gloucester and Worcester streets. I only found out about it later in the day so by the time I made it in there, the weather had changed from blue sky and sunny (like a lot of the other photos out…

Continue reading →: New Regent StreetI popped into town to get a photo of the street with the building coming down – as to me it’s quite symbolic of where are are at the moment in Christchurch. Things are still changing, but some things have kind of stayed the same – we still have the…

Continue reading →: Smoggy MorningBit of a smoggy start to the day today. You can see the line where it stops! Guess a lot of people are using fires to keep warm and perhaps some of the construction and de-construction of the city is contributing. It’s on days like these that I’m glad I…

Continue reading →: Christchurch – the Ever Evolving CityThese new signs with the purple stripes have appeared in the central city. We are certainly an evolving city, that’s for sure. Some days, it’s actually hard to work out what street you are on, or what building was once on a street corner. Heck, whole blocks have gone in…
