The plague of NIMBY’s may yield if a real plan is put in place to rebuild better. Vast areas could be rezoned for density. A way of addressing the enormous number of displaced people could also address the largest homeless population in the USA. The city that defines urban sprawl could be redefined. How does this play out?

      You’ll like the Pensacola Beach UFO house. That thing his withstood loads of hurricanes. Also note that it’s cinder block. All the 50s houses built like that are still around after the McMansions get wiped off the face of the Earth.

      Oh… I should add, it wasn’t a total success, the power poles supplying the building burned down in the fire - so they lost electricity.

      A great demonstration of building for the environment
