Is there a plan to fix/rebuild it?

Actually spent our honeymoon in New Zealand in 09, with Christchurch as our starting and finishing point.

It is a beautiful city, and the cathedral was magnificent. We stopped inside to explore, but we didn't pay the money to go to the top of the tower. I wish we had now.

Have mixed feelings about Christchurch, was there in '03. Wanted to treat myself to a nice X-mas dinner only to find out that even KFC and McD were closed :ahhh

:D

Btw, awesome Signal pictures... hope they rebuild, one day I will return to NZ for a visit :tu:
