unused. and in beautiful condition.
The view shows the original cathedral that was destroyed by the 1931 Hawke's Bay earthquake. Begun in 1886, consecrated in December 1888, and largely complete by 1890, the original cathedral of St John was a brick construction designed by Christchurch architect Benjamin Mountfort. Following the total destruction of the first cathedral a temporary building was erected on the site, standing from 1931 until it was closed in 1960. and which is now replaced by the current Waiapu Cathedral of Saint John the Evangelist, Napier which is the formal name of the Cathedral of the Diocese of Waiapu. It is more commonly called either Waiapu Cathedral; St John's Cathedral, Napier; or Napier Cathedral. It has the unusual distinction of hosting the cathedra of both the Bishop of Waiapu and of Te Pihopa o Aotearoa/Bishop of Aotearoa
The postcard is is nice condition. It clearly shows the brick construction on the building.
