Pine Bluff Flood Threat Hits Million Dollar Property
Five million dollars at stake as Pine Bluff residents rush to build makeshift barriers against the Arkansas River. Citizens employ teams to weave mats and push them into the river to form a temporary bank, hoping to save the Jefferson hotel, courthouse, and downtown warehouses from the rising flood. The riverfront is unsafe for pedestrians as sections of land north of the courthouse move toward the river. Secretary of War Wright has been asked to authorize a river course change.
