Demolition to begin on Cathedral Square buildings

Nicole Mathewson Reporter from The Press

The clock is ticking for one of Christchurch’s ‘Dirty 30’ buildings, following the announcement of a series of demolitions.

The clock is ticking for one of Christchurch’s ‘Dirty 30’ buildings, following the announcement of a series of demolitions.

The strip of abandoned shops - a two-storey pavilion and the six-storey car park which wraps around the 14-storey former Rydges Hotel, on the corner of Oxford Tce and Worcester Blvd - is expected to be gone by April 2024.

The Christchurch City Council granted Emmons Development NZ Ltd resource consent to demolish the buildings in May 2023, and on Thursday said the works will begin in September.

Emmons Development, whose sole shareholder is Singaporean-based Naoaki Sun, plans to redevelop the hotel after demolition is complete. Emmons Development also owned the cleared site of the former 12-storey Grant Thornton office building, which was demolished in 2012 and located next to the car park.

For people with elderly or unwell dogs (or young puppies)

Cherry from Heathcote Valley

I just bought this brilliant dog carrier pack from TradeMe for $17.50! (For a friend’s elderly dog who still likes to go for short walks). I believe they come in a range of sizes, this is an XL.

I just bought this brilliant dog carrier pack from TradeMe for $17.50! (For a friend’s elderly dog who still likes to go for short walks). I believe they come in a range of sizes, this is an XL.

It has padded back straps, a waist strap, a clip to hold your dog in and can be worn back or front. Heaps of pockets for doggy bags, treats, keys, water bottle etc. I put a cushion in the bottom for comfort. It is made of mesh in the sides so your little one won’t get too hot!

I don’t sell these or have anything to do with them, I just know a lot of people don’t take their old dogs out any more for lack of a convenient way to transport them. Hope this will help some other dog owners. All the best Cherry 🍒

Christchurch mayor Phil Mauger is pushing to use a lane of traffic for hospital car parking, while opposing doing the same to create a cycleway on Park Tce.

The Christchurch City Council will on Wednesday consider Mauger’s plan to temporarily close one lane of traffic on part of Hagley Ave and Riccarton Ave. It will also make the final decision on whether to keep a temporary cycleway on Park Tce, which Mauger has heavily criticised in the past.

At the hospital he was proposing the council trial the lane closure for up to 10 days before making a final decision. Such a test was not done with Park Tce, he said. In a mayor’s report to the council, Mauger said the 10-day trial would allow time to assess options for increasing on-street car parking.
