Taking Action: Rebuilding Joplin after the Tornado Using the ATSDR Brownfields/Land Revitalization Action Model Green Complete Streets in the 20th Street Corridor, Joplin, Missouri.

摘要

The City of Joplin asked the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) to assist in developing a green complete street strategy for the 20th Street Corridor from Main Street to Highview Avenue. The Joplin 2011 Tornado inflicted heavy damage on this corridor, and the city plans to redevelop and revitalize the area. Because the tornado completely destroyed parts of the corridor, the city wants to revitalize former residential or industrial areas for community use.
