$1 billion may not cover Notre Dame Cathedral rebuilding costs after fire

Days after a fire engulfed Paris' beloved Notre Dame Cathedral, fundraising efforts neared the $1 billion mark. But officials estimate the international surge in donations may not yet cover the rebuilding costs.

French President Emmanuel Macron has called for Notre Dame to be rebuilt in five years. France, he said, would"convert this disaster into an opportunity." Architects say the repairs could take decades.

Huh? You can build an entire village for $1 billion.
