Manchester Courts, originally called the MLC Building, was a commercial high-rise in central Christchurch, New Zealand, built in 1905–1906 for the New Zealand Express Company in the Chicago School architectural style. Upon completion, it was the tallest commercial building in Christchurch and earned status as a Category I heritage building. The structure was severely damaged in the 2010 Canterbury earthquake and subsequently condemned; demolition commenced on 19 October 2010 and concluded in late January 2011.
