Description
23 June 2011, Christchurch, New Zealand. The Prime Minister of New Zealand today announced a Red Zone which includes 5000 condemned residential homes. The land in this zone has been so badly damaged by recent earthquakes that it can no longer be built on. Five thousand home owners in this area will be paid for their land and houses and have to relocate. Photo includes levees recently built on both sides of the Avon River and holes appearing in the streets of Dalington in the heart of the new Red Zone.
