Superstorm Heroic Neighborhood
This Friday, Nov. 2, 2012 photo shows one of 14 homes destroyed by fire during Superstorm Sandy in Belle Harbor, N.Y. Residents of the street used kayaks and a surfboard to evacuate residents at the height of the storm as smoke and flaming embers made them fear the fires would leap to their homes. The fires occurred just a block from where a plane crashed in November 2001, killing 265 people. (AP Photo/Lawrence Neumeister)
