An oblique aerial view of part of the Massey University campus viewed from the southwest.

The Veterinary Sciences building and tower are in the right foreground, with the Science Towers and Wool Department Building directly behind them.

The Bernard Chambers Building is in the left foreground, while the Library and Student Centre are in the centre, with the Social Sciences Complex, the new Registry Building and the old Main Building to the left.

Behind the Student Centre are other buildings from the Massey Agricultural College period: the old Registry Building, Tiritea House, McHardy Hall, the Refectory and the Old Hostel (clockwise from left).

Wharerata is just visible on the far left edge of the picture, one of the Rehab Hostels is on the far right edge, and in the background is the brand new Water Tower with its associated reservoir behind it.

On the far left of the image, are the buildings that were originally built as the wool classing, farm machinery, carpenters' workshop, fitter shop and the concrete shop facilities for Massey Agricultural College, but would be reused for multiple purposes over the following years, and are today known as the Courtyard Complex. At this time they were being used by Ground Maintenance and Service Maintenance.
