Abstract
In this chapter, Jacky Bowring writes about the aftermath of the 2010 earthquakes in Christchurch, New Zealand. She reflects on how the histories and memories of residents, moved from the uninhabitable Red Zone to new housing developments, remain as traces in the now unpopulated landscape. The future of this vast landscape poses questions about how landscape palimpsests are managed through processes of change.
