• Walking around the Red Zone

    13. februar 2025, New Zealand ⋅ ☀️ 18 °C

    This ‘Red Zone’ was a residential area deemed unliveable after the 2011 earthquake due to the liquefaction. The ground was no longer stable and all of the existing infrastructure had sunk into the ground too much, including tilted telephone poles which you can still see. All the buildings were removed but the streets and signs are still there. It’s been turned into a park with some foot paths, but so weird to have this abandoned neighbourhood basically right in the middle of the city
