Christchurch's cataclysm


Ravaged by the 2010 (7.1) and 2011 (6.3) earthquakes, and its residents traumatized by the 14,500 aftershocks, Christchurch is a place of both resigned loss and resilient gumption.   
















Many businesses are now in such containers
Memorial to the 185 dead
Transitional Cathedral: made of cardboard & plastic with lifespan of 50 years
And they're still punting down the Avon
