VICKI ANDERSON offers a few highlights of events in Ōtautahi Christchurch this weekend and beyond. Have you made time to see the Ralph Hotere exhibition at Christchurch Art Gallery yet? When I visited recently, after checking out CoCA next door, I saw a couple crying quietly with their arms around one another in front of a painting. It is that moving. Christchurch tip of the week: The $6 tacos from Cactus in Barbadoes St. Also visit for the A+ banter. The Christchurch song of the week:
What A Friend by Terrible Sons, husband/wife duo Matthew Barus (Dukes) and Lauren Barus (Fly My Pretties). They play at The Piano on Friday.
Real estate agent Aaron Pero of Harcourts, who is marketing The Spire development for Countrywide, said he could not publicly identify the buyers, except to say they were a couple with a labrador who originally visited the building to see an $800,000 apartment.

How the completed Spire apartments could look. “Then we went up to look at the big one. It’s the ultimate up-sell. They have sold up in the suburbs and wanted somewhere in the city.” Pero said the building’s sub-penthouse, being sold for about $3.1m, had also recently gone under offer. Other luxury apartments on the fifth and sixth floors were sold before the tower was built.
