Damage to the Library Chambers (former Christchurch Public Library) where cracks are clearly visible on the brick walls. The footpath around the building has been cordoned off.
Damage to a property where the brick wall on the side of the building has crumbled, exposing the internal wooden structure. Seen through the cordon fence.
A view of the corner at the intersection of Derby and Stoneyhurst Streets. In the background a pile of brick rubble can be seen on the footpath.
A story of hope, at least when it comes to the rebuilding challenge ahead, particularly of Christchurch's badly damaged Cathedral. The Australian city of Newcastle suffered a major earthquake in 1989, and over the next few years put huge effort into rebuilding, virtually brick by brick, its ruined Cathedral. John McNaughton, who was the Lord mayor of Newcastle who oversaw the rebuild, joins us.
Damage to a house in Richmond. Bricks have fallen from the walls onto the driveway, and a large gap between the concrete foundation and the wooden framing shows how much the house has moved. The photographer comments, "The foundations and brick cladding moved, but the timber wall remained in position. The gap grew to over 400mm by the time the house was demolished.
