A view down Worcester Street towards the Regent Theatre building. Tiles have fallen away from the Regent Theatre's red dome. In the foreground the Clarendon Hotel can be seen, with a large crack where the facade has pulled away from the rest of the building.
The badly-damaged Knox Presbyterian Church on the corner of Bealey Avenue and Victoria Street. The brickwork in the gables has crumbled, exposing the wooden structure underneath. Wire fencing has been placed around the building as a cordon.

The road cordon on Hereford Street just outside the T & G Building (formerly known as Kenton Chambers). On the fence is a banner that reads 'Hope' and behind it is a street sign that reads 'Road closed'. A digger and building rubble can be seen in the background.

Looked like a nice stereo they had.
The Arts Centre photographed shortly after the 22 February 2011 earthquake. A large crack can be seen in the tower and part of the brickwork around the clock has collapsed onto the pavement below. Scaffolding was placed up against the building after the 4 September 2010 earthquake and the gable was braced with wooden planks. This probably limited the damage to this part of the building. The building has been cordoned off with tape reading, 'Danger keep out'. A sign in front of the door reads, 'Site closed'.
A photograph of the earthquake damage to R&R Sport on the corner of Colombo and Tuam Streets. Most of the side wall has crumbled, the bricks spilling onto the footpath below. Plywood and plastic sheeting has been used to weather proof the building. Wire fencing and road cones have been placed around the building as a cordon. A cherry picker is parked on the footpath in between the building and the fence.
A photograph looking east down Gloucester Street from near the Manchester Street intersection. Members of the Wellington Emergency Management Office Emergency Response Team and construction workers are walking down the street. To their right is the new Press House building with many broken windows. In the foreground, the Coachman building has sustained earthquake damage to the façade. Wire fences have been placed around the building as a cordon.
A photograph of a Wellington Emergency Management Office Emergency Response Team member talking to a member of the Professional Building Services on Gloucester Street. In the background is the Press House building with many cracks in the façade. Bits of bricks and other debris are scattered across the footpath. Some of the windows above the facade have broken. USAR codes have been spray-painted on one of the bottom-storey windows.
A photograph of a member of an emergency management team standing in the middle of the intersection of Manchester, High, and Lichfield Streets. In the background an excavator is sitting on top of a pile of rubble from several earthquake-damaged buildings. Other emergency management personnel are also standing on the corner of High and Manchester Streets. Behind the excavator another excavator is working to clear rubble. To the right there is a block of earthquake-damaged buildings and more building rubble to be cleared.
A photograph of members of the Wellington Emergency Management Office Emergency Response Team examining an earthquake-damaged building on Acton Street. The closest section of the outer wall has collapsed, and the bricks and other rubble have fallen onto the pavement in front. A boat which was being stored inside has toppled over and is now sticking out of the building. Several cars, also stored inside the building, are visible.
A photograph of a sign in the window of the Diabetes Centre on Hagley Avenue. The sign reads, "The Diabetes Centre is open. There are currently some earthquake repairs going on inside the building; however the building is safe to enter. Unfortunately the lift is out of action. Here are some pictures of what the building looks like inside: the lift is out of action until further notice; the gib board in the stairwell is being replaced; some ceiling panels are being replaced; our friendly administration staff are happy to assist where possible".
