I would say minimum 3 years to rebuild the island, 5 years to make it look like pre-Irma, and then another hurricane hitting this weekend??? Really, the landfills can't handle it either on the island, I wish there were some enterprising business there to repurpose the building materials to circumvent them going into the garbage. I don't mean to minimize the hurt the island will feel with all the damaged properties and the masses of unemployment looming, but the island's only business is tourism, they will rebuild as building materials become available. Obviously not everyone will rebuild, but I do believe the island will come back to life, not in months, but years.
