Photos - Demolition

Recently there were a lot of dump trucks parked on our street.
The drivers of these dump trucks were waiting their turn to fill their truck with rubble.
The UNOPS program is demolishing homes that were marked red (uninhabitable) after the earthquake. This back hoe quickly got to work bringing down the damaged home on our street.
After a few scoops of the back hoe shovel the dump truck left with it's load and another truck took its position. We still have a couple more houses/apartments on our street that have to be demolished and have the rubble removed. Until then the damaged buildings remain a reminder of the earthquake.
