Still many, many signs. Will be that way for years, sadly.

15th Street still had an awful lot of empty lots the last time I drove down it. I'd say it will take several more years.

There is a mile wide path right through the middle of town

Holt and a lot of Alberta still looks third world.

Not sure if serious.

Plenty of scars to the landscape and still some damaged buildings standing.

My understanding is the Mayor wants to play God with some redevelopment plan that is ironically making it harder to rebuild.
Just what I heard
ETA: Not Poli board, SEC relevant topic.

Its a tangled web, indeed.

Playing God is a stretch, but yeah he wants to revitalize some of the areas that were somewhat blighted prior to the storm.

There are houses being built and some finished. It still looks so weird driving down 15th street

Given the proximity of the damage to campus, it seems a perfect opportunity for an 'urban renewal' project.

I doubt it. I know it wasn't as bad as Joplin, but Joplin is still heavily destroyed, so I'd imagine Tuscaloosa is pretty bad still too.

Maddox has still done a helluva job. He will be the Governor one day, IMO
