摘　　要：乔丹河在密苏里州斯普林菲尔德市区流了一个世纪。和许多同样在19世纪建立的城市一样,水道是城市兴建的中心。12但几十年来,这条河经常暴发洪水,涌人城市的商业中心。到1927年,居民们厌倦16了一次又一次的水灾,于是建造了高大的混凝土堤岸把河流困住。但这还不够,五年后,该地再次被洪水淹没。这次,斯普林菲尔德市掩埋了这条河,加上了顶盖,把它封在城市街区的地下隧道中。For a century,Jordan Creek cut across downtown Springfield,Missouri.As in so many other 19th-century cities,the waterway was a founding centerpiece of the town.But over the decades,the creek regularly unleashed a tantrum of flooding into the city's commercial heart.By 1927,residents had tired of rebounding's from one wateryl attack after another.They created tall concrete banks to cagels the creek.When that wasn't enough and the area flooded again five years later,the city entombed the waterway,adding a lid and encasing it in tunnels hidden under city streets.
