Assessing the Aftermath of the Eaton Fire
Today, I visited the Eaton fire burn areas for the first time, inspecting concrete foundations to assess their condition after fire exposure. One of the homes I designed in 2003 was still standing in its own way—stucco walls towering 8 feet high with no studs left to support them, and steel twisted from the heat.
We also met with past and potential new clients—neighbors affected by the fire—to evaluate their foundations and discuss their vision for rebuilding. Each homeowner created a wishlist of goals for their new home, marking the beginning of the next chapter.
Rebuilding after a fire is tough, but it's also an opportunity to reimagine and create something stronger.
