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 view down Manchester Street, looking south. The road is noticably buckled, and rubble from damaged buildings can be seen beyond the cordon fence. The photographer comments, "Today I ... went for a walk along the cordon to the north of Christchurch CBD which runs about one street back from Bealey Avenue. The soldiers manning the cordon seemed happy for me to take photos but I couldn't see much of the city from the barrier ... what you can see shows there's obviously a lot of damage. The roads are swollen and raised in many place. The once flat CBD will now feature plenty of hills as well as natural traffic calming features".
