A photograph captioned by BeckerFraserPhotos, "Latimer Square. The buildings may not have withstood the earthquakes well, but the large trees of Latimer Square seem to have done rather better. Despite being inside the red zone for a number of months, Latimer Square looks as green and well-kept as ever".

This paper analyses the city of Christchurch, New Zealand, which has been through dramatic changes since it was struck by a series of earthquakes of different intensities between 2010 and 2011. The objective is to develop a deeper understanding of resilience by looking at changes in green and grey infrastructures. The study can be helpful to reveal a way of doing comparative analysis using resilience as a theoretical framework. In this way, it might be possible to assess the blueprint of future master plans by considering how important the interplay between green and grey infrastructure is for the resilience capacity of cities.
