The University of Tokyo – See the city affected by the earthquake through Google streetview

Researchers from The University of Tokyo recorded a Google Streetview of Suzu city, a city heavily hit by the Earthquake (just 6 km away from the 7.6 magnitude epicenter) from the end of January to the beginning of February. Although the area has made some progress towards recovery, it is by no means back on its two feet.

Interview (not connected to UTokyo)

"Reconstruction is underway… Well, it's true that we've started cleaning up the roads a little and removing debris, but the lives of the people affected by the disaster are completely unpredictable and will not change.It's been three months since the earthquake, but… On TV everywhere, the news about earthquakes in other prefectures is gradually decreasing and is probably being forgotten. I don't think we should just let this fade away.'"
