Summer 2023 Intern, Cotleur & Hearing
Five years ago, Hurricane Michael devasted the Florida panhandle community of Port St. Joe. As part of the Florida Resilient Cities program, professors and students conducted extensive research and crafted design proposals to help the city recover.
Their work resulted in a comprehensive plan that would allow the city’s parks to retain stormwater, minimize the risk of inundation surge, promote outdoor activities and a healthy lifestyle, and establish neighborhood connections.
