Deserted High Street

Thursday 30 April 2020

View from the intersection of Lichfield Street and Manchester Street looking along empty High Street towards Cashel Street. Taken during the first days of New Zealand moving from COVID-19 Alert Level 4 to Alert Level 3 which meant limitations on trading and movement, leaving the central city empty.
