The National Avenue Visioning Toolkit was created as part of Drury University’s Center for Community Studies.  The project looked at the National Avenue corridor in Springfield, Missouri, between Elm and Grand Streets, as well as the areas on either side of the corridor:  Missouri State University and the historic Rountree neighborhood. 

​ 

The project included recommendations for a large variety of issues, including:

​ 

Updates to the existing Rountree Urban Conservation District
Design Guidelines
Home Improvement Program
Sustainability
Streetscaping
Traffic Solutions
New Commercial Development
Pocket Parks
New Townhouse Development
