The upcoming auction of one of Christchurch’s ‘dirty 30’ buildings could be a breakthrough for the heritage precinct of lower High St.

Formerly the Ace Video premises, 129 High St on the St Asaph St corner has remained derelict while earthquake repairs started on the block’s other buildings.

After a long insurance battle, owners Natu and Nalini Rama finally settled their claim on the building late last year.

The couple have owned the property since and 1989 and ran their video business from it until the 2011 quakes.
