A photograph captioned by BeckerFraserPhotos, "A residential property at 464 Avonside Drive. The holding tank in the garden means the inside toilet can be used, rather than relying on a Port-a-loo.
A digitally manipulated image of a sign reading "A bit of dirt never hurt". The photographer comments, "This was a sign put up on a section of land in the Port of Lyttelton where an earthquake damaged building had been removed. The cliff at the back had collapsed down probably during the demolition process".
A photograph submitted by Tim Kerr to the QuakeStories website. The description reads, "Some attempted to make their Port-a-Loo a little more homely. I took pleasure in maintaining this one in Locksley Ave".

A digitally manipulated photograph of broken windows on Shadbolt House. The photographer comments, "This was close to the start of the demolition of the earthquake damaged Shadbolt House building in the Port of Lyttelton, New Zealand. In the bright sun the glass reflected the blue sky, but the broken windows only reflected the blackness of the interior of the empty broken building".
A digitally manipulated image of the word 'Lyttelton' made out of damaged bricks. The photographer comments, "This shows the courage and humour of the earthquake wrecked port of Lyttelton. There is lots of little things that make you smile that the locals and volunteers from around the area have created".
A photograph of staff from Abseil Access in the car park outside their office on Quakers Quay in Woolston. The staff are standing next to a trailer full of rocks which they have gathered from the Port Hills. The rocks will be painted and used to define the boundaries of Rock on Eastside, an outdoor lounge and art space on the corner of Linwood Avenue and Aldwins Road.
A photograph of a shipping container used as a site office on Hereford Street. In front of the container are two Port-a-loos, and chairs taken from surrounding buildings sit on the footpath to be used as a staff break area.
Two workers inspect fuses placed in an embankment during reinforcement work. The photographer comments, "This is the reinforcing of an embankment in the port of Lyttelton, which partly collapsed in the Christchurch earthquakes. They are using the same equipment as used for blowing up rock faces to mend them".

When this building was first brought on site I spent a few hours removing the tape/paper that had been covering every window.
