Long Beach, Mississippi Concept Plan – Oak Park
August 2006
In the wake of Hurricane Katrina and significant property destruction, the city of Long Beach, MS developed a proposed comprehensive plan for the city that included a concept for a new public green space called Oak Park to buffer the downtown area from storm surge from the Gulf of Mexico. The plan placed the park between a new roadway to the north and the coastline and Highway 90, which would be redesigned, to the south. The plan was designed to both revitalize the town aesthetically and provide natural protection for residents from storm events.
