In the January 12, 2010 earthquake many monuments and historic buildings were damaged or destroyed. The most famous of these is the National Palace, which will be renovated when possible. Many churches have been partly destroyed, and will not be renovated due to the extensiveness of the destruction or due to the lack of funding. The Hyppolite market was already largely destroyed in a fire in 2008, and the earthquake further damaged the historical structure. However, this market will be completely renovated in a privately funded project. Although the government has different priorities following the earthquake, ISPAN is still actively protecting Haitian heritage spread over the country.
