The deepest records
The places the archive holds the most about, a written piece, lives that stood on the same ground, claims read out of documents, leads not yet read. Deep is not important: it means somebody has got to this record. A bare entry is not a place without a past, its reading is just still ahead of it.

- The exhibition the square didn't getIn January 1882 two promoters asked the city council for Cranmer Square, buildings and all. By April the exhibition had opened — in Hagley Park.
- The cemetery the records keptIts burial registers open in April 1851 and run into the 1970s — the founding dead of Christchurch kept in three volumes, nine plans, and a book of receipts.
- The Queen on the squareHow Canterbury’s jubilee memorial became a statue of Queen Victoria — argued over, under-subscribed, and unveiled by the mayor’s wife.

Questions, answered briefly
630 places in Christchurch that the district plan’s heritage schedule or Heritage New Zealand has listed, each with what is known about it and the document it is known from. A statement without a source cannot be stored here, so it cannot appear.
How much the archive currently holds on the place, a written piece, a Wikipedia entry, claims read out of documents, leads not yet read. It is coverage, not importance: a bare entry is a record nobody has got to yet.
A register entry is a listing, not a researched record. A statement appears only after somebody reads it out of a source, the gaps are the reading still to do. The corrections page says how a source gets filed.
The providers the archive searches, Papers Past, DigitalNZ’s partners, council collections. Every row links out to the original. They are leads and citations, not verified history.
The past, other doors in
- The earthquakes, the sequence that remade ChristchurchThe unmapped fault that opened in September 2010, the February rupture that killed 185 people, and the aftershock years still arriving, in plain language.
- The sequence, every shake, countedEvery magnitude-3+ earthquake in the Canterbury box since the fault opened: month by month, suburb by suburb, from GeoNet’s catalogue.
- The faults under the plainsThe rupture nobody had mapped until it tore open in September 2010, and the zones the survey knew: drawn as the surveyors traced them.
- The red zoneThe ground the Crown wrote off in February 2011, the suburbs that stopped being suburbs, drawn boundary by boundary.
- The gradesTC1, TC2, TC3, what the ground that stayed asks of a foundation, drawn in the survey’s own colours.
- The buried cityEvery recorded dump and tipped pit on the council’s books, from 1880 on, most of them parks and school grounds now.
- When the water cameEvery recorded flood patch on the council’s books, filed under the survey or storm that drew it, 1934 to the quake-era taskforce and beyond.
- The dangerous workEvery parcel on the hazardous-activities register: petrol stations, chemical works, the trades that can leave something in the ground.
- The made groundEvery parcel the property files say was filled or made: engineered fill, sawdust, the ground the city put there.
- The rocks that came downThe GNS rockfall survey of the Port Hills, every boulder mapped, which fell, and which still wobble under a push.
- The ground that got cleanedEvery parcel whose file says the contamination was dealt with: dug out, capped, or managed in place under a long-term plan.
- The model’s mapThe 2019 study that graded every patch of the district for the next big shake: High to unlikely, with the free-face flags where spreading is possible.
- The armourThe engineered rockfall defences on the Port Hills: anchors, cables, mesh and catch fences, nearly all still named "temporary" works from the quake years.
- The canopyEvery street and park tree the council counts, the veterans and the protected, and the ghost canopy of the trees the file remembers felling.
- The plan’s wordEvery patch of ground filed under what the district plan permits it to be, the city’s residential heart, its parks, and the corridor the red zone became.
- The plan’s reservationsThe ground the plan holds for a public work, the roads and the schools, the airport’s thousand hectares, the pipes, and the quake-era Frame.
- The plan’s exceptionsWhere the usual rules yield, the heritage schedule, the culturally and ecologically significant ground, the coast and the floodways, and the kept streets the plan names by name.
- The listed cityThe plan’s own heritage schedule, every place it protects by name, graded, drawn with its setting, and cross-referenced to the national register.
- The sea’s reachThe mapped inundation extent, the ground NIWA’s modelling says the sea could reach: the estuary, the coast, the rivers’ mouths.
- The ground that movesThe plan’s slope-hazard areas, the Port Hills watched for rockfall, cliff collapse and mass movement, drawn from the post-quake geotech review.
- The remembered groundThe plan’s sites and areas of significance to Ngāi Tahu, the waters, the sacred and treasured places, the ancestral landscapes, and the silent files.
- Liquefaction, the ground that remembered it was swampWhy the east failed in the shakes: the drained wetland under the suburbs, and what the post-quake surveys mapped.
- Heritage, what gets protected and who decidesThe district-plan schedule, the Heritage NZ list, and what a listing actually forbids, how this register works.
- The heritage walksHand-picked walks through the register, each stop a listed place opening its own record.
- The shelfEvery paper, collection and document the archive holds, the originals linked at the providers that keep them.
- The old sitesPā sites, ruins and archaeological ground the open map records, a mapper’s lead, read alongside the register.
- The monumentsMemorials and public art still standing, what the city chose to mark, and where.
- The daysThe archive by calendar date, what each day holds, including the shakes that landed on it.
- The yearsThe record year by year, 1841’s first newspaper through the earthquake years to now.
