One of the more striking images that has emerged to put the damage in perspective is that of the presidential palace in Port-au-Prince laying in ruins.
The pictures and video from on-the-ground reports in Haiti following the magnitude 7 earthquake are truly heartbreaking. But it is difficult to imagine the full extent of the damage to that Haitian Presidential Palace and its capital, Port-au-Prince, in particular.
The worst earthquake in 200 years - 7.0 in magnitude - struck less than ten miles from the Caribbean city of Port-au-Prince, Haiti. The initial quake was later followed by twelve aftershocks greater than magnitude 5.0. Structures of all kinds were damaged or collapsed, from shantytown homes to Haitian Presidential Palace.
