This is a now a historic photo of iconic buildings in Lyttelton, New Zealand before the earthquakes in 2010-11 devastated the port of Christchurch. The buildings are reflected in the windows of those opposite. Most of them no longer exist.
- This historic building that signalled noon when the ball dropped was flattened in the earthquakes that devastated Christchurch. All that history and beautiful furniture lost.
- The Sky Tower in Auckland, New Zealand defines the city skyline beside the beautiful Waitemata (Maori meaning sparkling waters) Harbour. You can bungi jump off the tower if you are fearless – or reckless.
