About the Avon Loop

The Avon Loop neighbourhood is located in central Ōtautahi /  Christchurch and thrives due to the persistence and passion that residents, ex-residents and friends have for the community.  We are privileged to own and administer our own Community Cottage, which we hire out to a variety of community groups for a modest fee.  

The community's association (ALPA) serves the neighbourhood by maintaining the Community Cottage, holding regular community events and keeping the community informed about notices relevant to our new "normal" living conditions.  We are all volunteers who have a passion for our unique place / location, in Christchurch.

Following the 2011 Christchurch earthquake, 78 homes in our beautiful, much loved neighbourhood were red-zoned.  All these homes were demolished and this area is now known as the Avon Loop Red Zone.
