8A THE DAILY ASTORIAN • THURSDAY, OCTOBER 12, 2017 Tornado: ‘Manzanita is here and back to normal’ Continued from Page 1A Chung Lee, the owner of Manzanita Market & Deli, was one of the lucky businesses on Laneda Avenue that escaped significant damage. He was out of town when the tornado hap- pened, and remembers driving from Astoria only to find the roads blocked with debris. “I couldn’t believe it. It kind of looked like a war zone. I was concerned because I didn’t realize it was so bad until I got here,” Lee said. But it wasn’t even 24 hours later before his power was restored and the debris that pre- vented him from entering town the first time was cleared by volunteers and city employees. “It’s a small town, but we always seem to pull together when something like this hap- pens,” Lee said, reflecting on his 20 years living in the small community of about 600 res- idents. “Sometimes being a small town is an advantage, because you know each other better, which means you help each other out better.” That camaraderie is also the first thing that came to mind for Doug Dick, a resident and con- sultant for On the Level Inspec- tion Concepts Inc. When the tornado hit, Dick was the town’s building official. He said recuperation for dam- aged houses has been slower than expected due to compli- cations homeowners have had with insurance claims. But what impressed him was the initiative taken by local con- struction companies immedi- ately afterwards. “I remember we were pull- ing trees out of Laurel Street so people could get into drive- ways. All of a sudden, this kid pops out of nowhere cutting trees with his chainsaw. He was just there to help,” Dick said. “They didn’t wait to be told what to do — they just went out to do what they needed to do.” Many older homes had to be demolished because damage was so severe, he said. While it is sad to see older homes go, he said the bright side is many of the new homes being rebuilt are more wind and earthquake resistant, which will hope- fully minimize the damage of another storm. A sense of normalcy has returned. But Dan Haag, the coordinator of the Manzanita Visitors Center, said he still receives calls from people ask- ing whether the town is safe — or even still exists. Brenna Visser/The Daily Astorian Every building but one has been rebuilt on Laneda Avenue, the street where the tornado hit hardest last year in Manzanita. “In general, the tornado has turned into more of a curios- ity thing now. People want to know what happened,” Haag said. “But a lot people haven’t been back since the summer before the tornado. At first, we asked, ‘How are we ever going to get people back here?’” From what Haag can tell, Manzanita still saw the same number of visitors over the summer. Now he is encour- aging people to keep coming back. “We are getting the word out: Manzanita is here and back to normal.” CL ASSIF IE D M ARK ETPL A CE P lace classified ad s o n lin e at w w w .d ailyasto rian .co m o r call 503-325-3211 107 Public Notices Occasionally other companies make telemarketing calls off classified ads.
