408:. The history should probably distinguish immediate shelter (tents, churches, schools) from intermediate term housing (the San Francisco earthquake shacks, the Johnstown "hotels," unused army barracks? motels, and other shelters for a year or two. The article should include links to and summary of current official FEMA plans: how many people can they theoretically provide housing for after a major disaster.
