A little over two months since the devastating passage of Hurricane Maria, recovery and clean up around the island continue at a steady pace.
The before and after photos below show the pace of clean up in the capital, Roseau.

What a difference from noticing after Hurricane Maria struck. It will get better in Dominica. The trees are growing, the rivers flowing with fresh water, the houses and infrastructure will be repaired. It all takes patience and time.
God did not forsake Dominica. He gave D/can nationals something to think of and to offer prayers to Him on their behalf and that of others. In time He will make everything new.
God bless Dominica. God bless all those who are eagerly working to restore Dominica to normalcy. God bless all nationals.
The green is just beautiful. Well done citizens.
DNO
Thanks for something positive! Hats off. It would have been nice to show one of log ridden Pottersville and what it looks like now. Keep this up DNO.
The green is slowly coming back. Maria could not keep our island down. God bless Dominica.
For those of us away from home, this is very good to see. The green is back! Praise God! Thank you for sharing these photos. Excellent.
Great job people . Looks like things coming into place.
I know it’s a little early to say considering the hurricane and all. But really and Truely. Our City should not be looking like that . A counties city is the showcase of the island , so when all these contract and all is done . I really hope to see a more modern city , with curb appeal ,good landscaping ,good roads , and something I really ,really would like to see is covered gutters especially around roseau.
Officials travel a lot overseas so please copy and take note, Open gutters are a real turn off . There is so much to do ,but in rebuilding please consider the esthetic part of the city .
And while I am on that people please shave your beards, cut your hair, fix your teeth , fix your hair .
Some of you look so wild it’s not funny.
And the news people be more selective in who you interview ,or give them prior notice ,so they can fix up the appearance before you filmed them .
Things bad ,but at least don’t look…
No one is talking about Save A lot or as it is call [spend a lot] K.F.C. , the chicken , with church nassiffe, please can we get an update on the followings.
Is Roseau now a ghost town, there are no people on the streets in the ‘after’ pictures!
I can’t believe how much progress had been made. And it looks green again. Great news.
Hard work especially from Roseau City Council.
ok its great to see that the city is bouncing back what about the other areas…Updates my people
I am from a school in America that is partnering to help with the Dominica relief effort. These photos are very encouraging to see. We are curious, what is it like living on the island now, especially away from the cities? Is food and water still in short supply? What are the issues people are dealing with? Our thoughts nad prayers are with you all.
Amazing, the green is returning. Good job on the cleanup as well.
Many thanks for these pictures from those of us in the diaspora.
Great job to all,gods blessing on all of you.WE JUST NEED TO STOP THE POLITICAL DIVISION.
