This maps shows two options for construction of a levee to protect homes in the flood plain along the St. Joseph River. The wavy line at bottom represents the edge of the flood plain. The bold line at the top represents the administration's preferred location for the levee; the dotted line represents a more expensive alternate encompassing portions of the city's preferred location. The stars mark the locations for two pumping stations that will remove excess rainwater from the 70-acre site. Dec. 3, 1987. Photo by Larry Tebo.
