Quake pics: Damage to Chch venue buildings

Wed 23 Feb 2011 In: New Zealand Daily News

Photos just in from Christchurch hint at the earthquake damage to the city's two premier venues, Cruz nightclub and Menfriends sauna and cruise club. Cruz Situated almost opposite each other in Lichfield Street in the central city, both suffered minor damage in the September 'quake but were much more extensively damaged yesterday. The damage to Cruz appears primarily because of falling masonry from the building next door. Menfriends Cracked masonry and brickwork as well as cracked and shattered windows are evident on the front of the Menfriends building. Central Christchurch is still in rescue mode with local and international rescue teams combing the inner city for survivors and in some cases bodies.
