A local landmark may be recieving a face lift in the near future. Congressman Roy Blunt secured final house passage of more than $1.3 million for projects in the Springfield and Joplin areas. For Joplin it includes $60,000 for creating a feasibility study for the Union Depot downtown. The depot has been vacant since 1969 and is one of many restoration efforts planned for the downtown area. The Union Depot is one of eight Joplin structures on the national register of historic places.
