The footpath at the foot of the Taylors Mistake Road in Sumner is cordoned off, and a sign reads "Footpath closed. Please wait to be escorted through site".
A photograph captioned by BeckerFraserPhotos, "Avonside Girls High School sign". The sign reads, "This site is closed but the school is open. Avonside Girls High School has been temporarily relocated to Burnside High School, 151 Greers Road, Burnside 8053. Please do not enter this site - earthquake-damaged buildings".
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'.
