Even before 2 Category 5 hurricanes struck the U.S. Virgin Islands with punishing fury this month, the notion of paradise here was already about as brittle as a sand dollar. The local treasury had barely enough cash to keep the government funded for 3 days. The unemployment rate was more than twice the national average. The one-two punch of #HurricaneIrma and #HurricaneMaria 14 days later was especially cruel. After Irma hit 3 weeks ago, aid was slow to trickle into St. Thomas and St. John. When military, law enforcement and emergency medical workers finally did begin to settle in, they were forced to pull out as Maria approached. In many places across the 3 major islands of this American territory, the second storm drowned what the first couldn’t destroy. Today, @hlswift photographed the scene at what was once Chateau Bordeaux, a popular St. Thomas restaurant known for its views. In St. Thomas, the picture is grim: The 2 largest resorts won’t be able to open until next year, if not longer; owners of the restaurants and bars that came away unscathed wonder who will be left for them to serve; and residents who are suddenly without jobs are leaving en masse for the mainland.
