Around the neighborhood

 The nights are getting cooler and some trees are beginning to lose their leaves.

At the end of Suisen Dori (Daffodil Road), the building that was destroyed in the quakes is almost gone.

 Walking around the neighborhood, I found more evidence of the reconstructions process. I have heard that the daily rate for a construction worker has now doubled.

 Here is another view of the remains of the building at the end of Suisen Dori.

 Further up the road, another building is being torn down. However, it looks like they are only removing a portion of the structure. The main portion in the back will remain, if all the indications are correct.

 A few buildings further they were starting to tear down another building.

 This temple had some structural damage to the grounds and maybe to some of the buildings.

Here is another home that is being repaired. All of the above pictures were taken while walking along a section of a single road that was less than half a mile long.
