Victorian Detail

The Arts Centre, Christchurch, NZ Dec. 2008. Ajr

I never tire of taking photographs of the elaborate details of Christchurch's best Victorian Gothic architecture. This is an entry to the south side of the Christchurch Arts Centre - originally the home of the University of Canterbury (1873-1975), which has since moved to new premises in Ilam.....in the heart of suburban Christchurch. The old city buildings however are still in active use - filled with offices, artist studios, cafes, restaurants, galleries, the Court Theatre and numerous shops. www.artscentre.org.nz www.canterbury.ac.nz
