Timeball tower reopening<br />

• By Matt Salmons<br />

SEVEN YEARS after<br />

being almost completely<br />

destroyed, Lyttelton’s<br />

restored Timeball tower<br />

will officially<br />

reopen to the<br />

public next Friday.<br />

After sustaining<br />

damage in the<br />

February 22,<br />

2011, earthquake,<br />

the semideconstructed<br />

station was<br />

then damaged<br />

beyond repair during an<br />

aftershock later that year.<br />

Only the tower section<br />

Sheila<br />

Watson<br />

of the 1876-built structure<br />

could be restored. <strong>The</strong> $3<br />

million project started<br />

in July last year. Heritage<br />

New Zealand director<br />

southern region Sheila<br />

Watson said the<br />

restoration of the<br />

tower and flagpole<br />

was finished in<br />

June, but the area<br />

remained closed<br />

as landscaping was<br />

finished.<br />

“Much of the<br />

work was weather<br />

dependent,<br />

such as aspects of the<br />

stonemasonry and<br />

rendering work. <strong>The</strong> result<br />

Lyttelton’s<br />

Timeball<br />

tower will<br />

reopen<br />

to the<br />

public next<br />

week after<br />

the final<br />

touches are<br />

completed<br />

on the<br />

restoration<br />

project.<br />

is fantastic and Heritage<br />

New Zealand is thrilled to<br />

soon be able to formally<br />

reopen the site,” Ms<br />

Watson said.<br />

After an opening<br />

ceremony, people will be<br />

able to visit the site during<br />

daylight hours, while at<br />

night the tower will be lit<br />

up. Flag displays will also<br />

feature during the year.<br />

“As well as a great picnic<br />

spot, or simply to go an<br />

enjoy views of the harbour,<br />

it captures the history and<br />

heritage of the site through<br />

what has been returned<br />

and interpretation panels,”<br />

Ms Watson said.<br />
