The South New Brighton jetty has been closed for 3 or 4 years (fenced off) then the fence was removed and it was "open", but nothing has happened to it since the earthquakes, but it is closed again now, although it looks like a home made sign!
Photograph captioned by BeckerFraserPhotos, "The future of Calendar Girls is uncertain, because although it survived the earthquakes well, it is now within the zone called 'The Frame' and may not be deemed to be a suitable use for that zone".
A crane dismantles the top storey of Fuze Restaurant and Cafe, which was formerly the Harbour Board Offices building. It was constructed in 1880 from brick and Quail Island stone. It stands on the corner of Oxford Street and Norwich Quay in Lyttelton.
The collapsed chimney of a property on Robson Avenue in Avonside. It has fallen on to the property's front lawn as a result of the 4 September 2010 earthquake, and the section of roof it fell from has been weather proofed with a red tarpaulin.

The Empire Hotel on London Street in Lyttelton. Bracing has been placed on the front of the building to keep it together and limit further damage from aftershocks. Fencing around the building has been used to cordon it off.
A photograph of a colourful crocheted cover for a shipping container. It has a variety of patterns including a black swan, a red flower, and a heart with "hope" written in it.
A concrete block wall with a large diagonal crack running through it. The photographer comments, "This wall has fascinated me. It has cracked across in a dead straight diagonal line during one of Christchurch's many earthquakes. How could this have occurred?".
Mural on the side wall of Perry's Cafe on Madras Street. It depicts two work men; one speech bubble saying "Is my crack showing?" and in other other it says "Don't be silly!". A topical joke about the cracks on the wall and Christchurch in general.

A view of the ICTS building at the University of Canterbury, seen from level 7 of the James Hight building. The photographer comments, "First looks at our new temporary (maybe) office space. Our group will stay here until April or May 2011, then will move to another floor in the Central Library. We look down on the IT Building, which is doomed. The ugly draughty IT building is going to be demolished in the next campus revamp. The 'Butterfly Building' behind, originally the mainframe computer centre, will remain, as it's architecturally significant, apparently".
In the first of two frames which represents 'now' is a row of houses in the bay; two old-style character villas flank a modern house built to look like a boat and someone inside the modern house says proudly that they 'built here because of the character of the bays'. In the second frame which represents 'soon' all of the houses have taken on the character of the modern house and someone from the original modern house can't put their finger on why they feel that 'It's not the same somehow'.

An aerial photograph of the PricewaterhouseCoopers building. The photograph is captioned by BeckerFraserPhotos, "PricewaterhouseCoopers building at 119 Armagh Street. Its status is uneconomic to repair, so it will be demolished. Copthorne Central is visible behind it and will be staying".
Photograph captioned by BeckerFraserPhotos, "Fleet House is between the demolition sites of Kenton Chambers and Manchester Courts. It is being set up for demolition now - with material being stripped out of it and fill laid upon the footpath".
Liquefaction silt. The photographer comments, "After the earthquake in Christchurch New Zealand, liquefaction covered the streets, but after it had risen from below ground whilst the ground was shaking it the liquid in the liquefaction wanted to drain away".
A photograph of a sign in the back windscreen of a car. The sign reads, "Crack'd for Christchurch. Do you have broken china? Give it new life in our unique public mosaic in our new city. Be part of it."
Photograph captioned by Fairfax, "A Cashmere man has taken it upon himself to secure his home chimney with planks and ties. Dave McKenzie and his family retreated to underneath a beam in their house thinking it was the safest place".
This is how the building looked when it was built - fine indeed! democam.iopen.co.nz/ An engineer who owns a similar building in Dunedin, and is willing to put money into this building's restoration, is sure it could be stabilised, just like the Railway Clock Tower. And the t...
The title reads 'Greener square for Christchurch?..' The cartoon depicts the city centre in Christchurch entirely covered with green and there are cows wandering by the stream as well as grazing on the tops of buildings. A man at the top of the green cathedral says 'I can see it really growing on me!' Context: This is a reference to the draft Central City plan under which the Central City will be greener and more attractive. Quantity: 1 digital cartoon(s).
Looking across to the Town Hall. Will it stay or will it go?
A view of part of the former Canterbury Public Library complex after the 22 February 2011 earthquake. On the left the 1870s section is visible. It has been red-stickered and the ground around it has been spray painted with the words, "Danger, wall". The building on the right is the former Librarian's House, which was built in 1894. It has been enclosed in a safety fence, and a section of masonry from its gable has collapsed. Containers have been stacked between the buildings to reinforce their walls.
A stack of wooden frames with the words "Quake makes world headlines" written on the uppermost frame. The photographer comments, "This is a sculpture at the CPIT facility in Christchurch. It is a series of squares placed over a column with writing on the squares. It is an excellent movable sculpture that conveys the Christchurch earthquake very well. The squares are placed so that they can slide over each other and even fall inside the other on one side. It is a pity that only two sides of the squares are written on".
A female bartender chats with a customer as she pours his beer. She asks him about his jersey, saying 'That's not one of those expensive Adidas jerseys is it?' and he replies 'No - it's a Christchurch "After the quake" jersey!' The jersey has on the front three rectangular shapes that are tipping over. Context: Adidas has been at the centre of a jersey-pricing storm since it was revealed the replica tops could be bought much cheaper overseas. The jersey had been listed for sale at $US79.99 ($NZ92.68) on the US website worldrugbyshop.com and could also be found cheaper on British websites. It was retailing for $220 in New Zealand, but retailers have dropped the price as the debate has raged. Adidas has refused to drop the wholesale price.

Photograph captioned by BeckerFraserPhotos, "The Heathcote Valley entrance to the Bridal Track to Lyttelton was closed for a year because of the danger of falling rocks. It opened on the morning of December 23. The earthquake at lunchtime then closed it again when more rocks fell".
Photograph captioned by BeckerFraserPhotos, "The All Saints Church in Sumner. The traditional building materials and style of this church makes it look older than 1963. At the moment it is hidden behind a long line of containers protecting the road from potential rock fall hazards".
The door of a house on Main Road in Redcliffs. The house has been red-stickered due to rock fall danger. It has a sticker on it reading, 'Danger, live wires'. A 'Landslide and rock fall' factsheet has been taped to the door. The factsheet is produced by CERA.
