A replica of the Statue of Liberty that was damaged by the March 11 tsunami stands in Ishinomaki, Miyagi Prefecture, Friday, March 9, 2012, two days before the one-year anniversary of the disaster. Although most of buildings in the neighborhood were destroyed by the tsunami, the 9-meter (30 feet)-tall statue, built in 2010 as an tourist attraction, has survived and kept standing.
