Cargo Ship EUGENE LYKES Moored Amid War-Damaged Manila Waterfront Structures, Philippines, 1945
The cargo ship EUGENE LYKES lies moored amid the ruins of Manila's waterfront in 1945. The shattered concrete arches behind her, once part of a grand pre-war structure, stand as a monument to the devastating Battle of Manila, while makeshift shanties built over the water reveal how quickly residents began rebuilding life amid the rubble.
