SANTA ROSA, Calif. (KGO) -- The Tubbs Fire wiped entire neighborhoods clear in minutes. The upscale community in Santa Rosa was hit hard by the fire and it is slow to recover.

We have a look at Fountaingrove Village in Santa Rosa before the fire and DRONEVIEW7 shows us what the shopping center and housing complex looked like after.

The village was the center of a thriving neighborhood, where dozens of houses and condos nearby were leveled.

Among the businesses destroyed - a market, restaurant, dry cleaner and a spa.

Now, no one is relaxing. What was left of the shopping center has been cleared and the nearby neighborhood is just starting to show signs of recovery.

Take a look at all the before and after videos from the North Bay Fires here.
