Hi Robert! A surreal video compilation. What a heartbreak! Our neighborhoods won't be the same in our lifetime. I am also in Forest Hills, which suffered the macroburst. Miraculously, some blocks were left untouched, but most were devastating. I have a blog, regoforestpreservation.blogspo­t.com People should share their experiences & link videos to the relevant blog postings. People need to call 311 & hope for FEMA. When all is cleared up, I will organize a tree campaign. - Michael Perlman

Thanks for commenting. I like your website. Keep in touch. Check out my channel again as I created another video that has footage of Forest Hills 2 days after the storm.

Thanks for sharing. " it's your car huh?" " WHATEVERS LEFT OF IT" I feel bad for that guy. Still so amazing that only one person lost their life from this wide spread urban destruction.

Thanks for commenting. After looking at the destruction it is truly shocking that more people weren't injured or killed.

I know he lived close to here. I think he was on 69th between Manse & Nansen. I grew up in this house. It's the corner of 69th & Loubet....where the q23 makes the turn.

Bobby Kamen??? I think Mr Kamen still lives on Juno St....he was the leader of the cub scouts when I was a kid.....is this the Bobby Kamen your talking about? Not sure if he's still there...last time I saw him he was walking really slow....I think he is elderly / sick....I have not seen him in a while.
