The Breezy Point Madonna, still standing after 100 homes burned to the ground, has become a place of faith.

Where the McNulty home once stood on the corner of Oceanside and Gotham,
a few blocks from the Atlantic Ocean on the spit of land in Queens
called Breezy Point, there now remains a charred, twisted ruin. Flooding
and fire have left behind nothing but the foundation. Within it are
strewed a dislodged bathtub, an air-conditioner casing battered into a
helix shape, a mailbox coated with ashes.
