Earthquake Site-Four Weeks Later-- This is the scene as it appears today along Fourth Avenue in Anchorage, Alaska, where a four-block stretch of the business district was hard hit by the March 27 earthquake. Demolition crews are removing the rubble. Pending further soil foundation tests, the future of the damaged, sunken area remains uncertain.
