The original cardboard city and graveyard was constructed by the children of Renaissance Village in December 2005. Using piles of cardboard boxes and many rolls of duct tape, the children created a city that included a governor's office, a mayor's office, and a church including a graveyard for lost pets, friends and relatives. Their cardboard city was destroyed by a storm on the afternoon it was completed. What they had built was left in a soggy, formless mess like the city they left behind. Under the supervision of the art therapists, the children were able to process their feelings of loss by planning and rebuilding a tabletop city.
