1379:, a 25-year-old employed by the town's Crisis Management Department to voice disaster advisories and warnings, was hailed in the Japanese news media as a heroine for sacrificing her life by continuing to broadcast warnings and alerts over the community loudspeaker system, in the Crisis Management Department's building, as the tsunami overwhelmed it. She was credited with saving many lives. The three-story headquarters of the department remained standing but was completely gutted, with only a red-colored steel skeleton remaining. In the aftermath of the disaster, Endo was missing and was later confirmed to have died. Photos show the roof of the building completely submerged at the height of the inundation, with some people clinging to the rooftop antenna. The surviving steel frame, with bent sections being kept intact as a reminder of the damage the building sustained, has been preserved during the city's recovery. A new sea wall is also currently under construction in Minamisanriku, and other landmarks, such as the town's seafood market, have also been rebuilt. The market was one of the first amenities in the town to reopen, initially in a temporary location inside a large tent; as much of the town's fishing fleet was damaged, destroyed or swept away by the tsunami, residents banded together, sharing supplies and boats as part of a joint effort to resume the town's fishing industry.
