Haiti's catastrophe has killed thousands and destroyed Port-au-Prince, once a jewel in the Caribbean. We look at the architecture past, present and -- possibly -- future in Haiti's heart.

We hear from experts here and from Haiti: historianPatrick Sylvain, Architecture for Humanity's founderCameron Sinclair, Global Green'sTed Bardacke,Alejandra Lillo, co-creator of Make It Right, and others.
