Quake City's Bridge of Remembrance

This Bridge of Remembrance spans the Avon River at the end of Cashel Mall.
The large ornate archway spans the East end of the bridge. It is a War Memorial erected by the citizens of Christchurch to initially honour the sacrifice made during the 1914–1918 Great War, in 1923.

The Bridge of Remembrance was structurally damaged in the 22 February 2011 earthquake, but inspections have said that it is stable. It is due to be repaired this year.


GingerNan, Jamazen and I had a Friday photo shoot together today, at the Cashel Street Re-Start Mall in central Christchurch. It's quite a fascinating area, with most of the shops being housed in converted containers, very cleverly and colourfully too. It was much warmer today and we had a very pleasant morning together.
