election in Christchurch and all these Dinasours will be gone. mike #29 12:28 am May 27 2012 Gavin #24 02:18 pm May 26 2012 Why revitalize a CBD that was dead anyway, all that was happening was drunks, crime,clubs and bars. I agree, there will be little retail in the new city centre when it is built, there was alot of empty retail space before the quakes and now rents will be huge putting off most small business. Small business owners have looked to the suburbs now and people have become mall rats also. It will be a central city of bars,restaurants,clubs and one big munted cathedral.
