Auckland man Davinder Singh said he was planning to return to work today despite working in a building close to the scene of yesterday's terror attack.
The telecommunications worker said despite yesterday's attack life would be returning to normal today.
He said people were advised over public service announcements to stay inside soon after the first attack took place.
It included advice for people to keep well away from windows.
He remained in the central city for hours.
When he decided to drive home, he found the normally bustling city centre empty as office blocks, shops and stallholders closed their doors early.
He said despite the carnage the evacuation of the area was controlled and calm.
He made contact with his family in Auckland last night to tell them he was safe and spent the rest of the night indoors.
