Christchurch
A 180 room Oaks hotel was built in the Christchurch Central City in 2005 on the corner of Cashel and Liverpool streets. The building, valued at NZ$32m, was damaged in the February 2011 Christchurch earthquake and closed, but was also inaccessible as it was located within the Central City Red Zone. Whilst repair was possible and estimated at NZ$6m, the Christchurch Central Recovery Plan placed the building in the East Frame, and the Canterbury Earthquake Recovery Authority placed a compulsory acquisition order on the property. The building, amongst the tallest in Christchurch, was purchased by The Crown and demolished between October 2014 and March 2015.[9][10]
