Slide show provides tour of historic Joplin buildings “It’s full from floor to ceiling of junk, and there is so much office equipment stored there,” Simpson said. “It’s a hazard, and it’s heartbreaking.”
Other slides showed many of the Victorian homes that once populated the area of Joplin and Wall avenues. Simpson said her interest in older structures began when the former Connor Hotel collapsed during a demolition project. The hotel stood on the site that is now the public library. She said she is excited to see the interest in renovating older buildings, such as the Frisco and Newman buildings. “I’ve always been interested in old buildings,” she said. “It’s just exciting to see this.”
