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 heart has been drawn in chalk on the wall of a residential property on Cannon Hill Crescent, Mt Pleasant. The time and date of the 22 February 2011 earthquake have been written inside.
Hopefully will be open again later this month - 25 months afer the February earthquake.

The Lyttelton side of Evans Pass is closed (since the earthquake 23 months ago - 22/02/11). Prior to the road tunnel (through the Port Hills) opening in the early 1960s this was the main access road to the port of Lyttelton.

There are occasional sewerage spills into the Avon River while all the sewer and road repairs are carried out. This rock wall was level and well above high tide level prior to the eathquakes. All the houses that can been seen here (except for those on the distant Port Hills) are in the suburban "red zone" and are still to be demolished.
