A near-perfect small-town façade hides the echoes of fierce trials and silent schemes beneath Joplin’s historic skyline. Uncover the city’s restless heart with this self-guided audio tour, where each turn reveals secrets that most visitors never hear.

What courtroom drama inside the Durward G. Hall Federal Building changed local law for decades? Why did a midnight visitor slip unnoticed through the silent stacks of the Joplin Public Library? And how did the Newman Brothers Building become the center of a scandalous business rivalry that still whispers through its brick walls?

Move deeper into Joplin with every step. Trace power plays, lost ambitions, and bold dreams etched into marble and stone. Watch the city’s forgotten moments flicker back to life as you journey across intersections where history changed course.

Begin the unraveling. The hidden layers of Joplin are waiting just beyond the surface.
