The aftermath of Hurricane Helene in Asheville, N.C. has left Biltmore Village in a state of devastation. The river is clogged with debris, shops and restaurants are closed, and the charm and prestige that once defined the area have been washed away. Residents like Gabriel Smith are working tirelessly to repair the damage and restore life to the village. The flooding caused by the hurricane reached unprecedented levels, submerging buildings and businesses, leaving the city looking nearly flattened. Despite the chaos and destruction, the community has come together to support each other. Asheville resident Renee White expressed sadness over the damage to the city but commended the unity and resilience shown by residents of all backgrounds. Another resident, Kareem McDowell, highlighted the initial panic that has now turned into a collaborative effort to rebuild and move forward. The process of recovery will be long and challenging, but the spirit of community and solidarity in Asheville will help the city rise from the devastation caused by the hurricane.
