Napa, CA, August 28, 2014 ; A steel section of rebar drilled and anchored with epoxy in a load-bearing wall to hold two wythes (or vertical sections of masonry) together inside the historic Borreo Building on Third Street in the City of Napa, California, which survived a 6.0 earthquake on August 24, 2014 with minor damage. Named after the Borreo family who once owned the historic stone structure, the Italianate Renaissance Borreo Building was built in 1877 and constructed of native cut stone. The building was seismically stabilized and retrofitted with mitigation assistance from FEMA in 2001. FEMA supports state, local and tribal governments in their efforts to recover from natural disasters and mitigate all hazards. Photo by Christopher Mardorf / FEMA
