圣路易斯龙卷风灾区第一阶段紧急拆除收官：逾700栋建筑将拆除，第二阶段2027年初启动
美国密苏里州圣路易斯市（独立市）市政府复苏办公室10月27日宣布，2025年5月16日龙卷风重灾区北圣路易斯的第一阶段紧急拆除工作正式收官：全阶段将完成逾700栋建筑的拆除，约占全灾区预计1400至1600栋拆除总量的45%至50%。
第一阶段拆除中，约430栋为私人业主建筑，270多栋为市土地回收局（LRA）持有的公有建筑。拆除工作2025年开始，2026年3月起大幅提速：今年5月完成量还不到100栋，目前已超过560栋。市长卡拉·斯潘塞（Cara Spencer）说：「龙卷风来袭时，许多家庭就住在随时可能倒塌的建筑旁边。第一阶段就是要让每一个街区恢复安全。我们将在第二阶段完成这项工作，同时把重心转向重建。」
第一阶段耗资逾3000万美元，由市、州、联邦三级共同出资：市级与地方资金1100万美元，包括市议会第22号法案拨出的拉姆斯队和解金700万美元、建筑局一般收入300万美元与大都会排污区拆除资金100万美元；密苏里州通过州参议院第1号法案出资1000万美元；联邦约1200万美元，包括经土地回收局渠道拨付的600万美元《美国救援计划》资金与600万美元联邦应急管理署拆除资金。市政府指出，进入拆除名单的建筑中，70%至75%在龙卷风之前就已空置或被判定为危房，反映出灾区长期投资不足的问题。
拆除工作12月将大体暂停（紧急情况除外），第二阶段定于2027年初启动，完成剩余的紧急、主要走廊沿线与业主申请拆除；第三阶段将与社区重建结合。市政府估计，全灾区拆除还需追加4000万至4500万美元，居民主导的各社区规划将于2027年初完成并通过。首席复苏官朱利安·尼克斯（Julian Nicks）与负责市土地银行的圣路易斯发展公司总裁斯蒂芬·韦斯特布鲁克斯（Stephen Westbrooks）均表示，将把三级政府的合作延续到后续阶段。居民可在stlrecovers.com追踪拆除进度，也可前往位于自然桥大道4401号的复苏外联中心咨询，开放时间为周一至周五上午10时至下午3时，居民支持团队电话314-207-7395。
St. Louis Closes Out Phase 1 of Tornado-Zone Emergency Demolitions: More Than 700 Buildings, Phase 2 to Start in Early 2027
In St. Louis, Missouri, an independent city, the City's Recovery Office announced on October 27 the close-out of Phase 1 emergency demolitions in the North St. Louis neighborhoods hit by the May 16, 2025 tornado: Phase 1 will complete more than 700 demolitions, roughly 45 to 50 percent of the estimated 1,400 to 1,600 demolitions needed across the tornado zone.
Of the Phase 1 total, about 430 demolitions are privately owned properties and more than 270 are publicly owned properties held by the Land Reutilization Authority (LRA). Work began in 2025 and accelerated sharply in March 2026: in May 2026 fewer than 100 demolitions had been completed, the count now stands above 560, and it will pass 700 by the end of Phase 1. 'When the tornado hit, families were living next to buildings that could come down at any moment,' Mayor Cara Spencer said. 'Phase 1 was about making every block safe. We will finish that work in Phase 2 as we begin to shift our focus to rebuilding.'
Phase 1 was funded by more than $30 million from city, state and federal sources: $11 million in city and local funds ($7 million in Rams settlement funds under Board Bill 22, $3 million in General Revenue through the Building Division, and $1 million in MSD demolition funds), $10 million from the State of Missouri under Senate Bill 1, and an estimated $12 million in federal funds ($6 million in ARPA funds administered through the LRA and $6 million in FEMA-funded demolition). The city noted that 70 to 75 percent of the properties in the demolition pipeline were already vacant or condemned before the tornado, reflecting decades of disinvestment.
Demolition work will largely pause in December except for emergencies, and Phase 2, covering the remaining emergency, corridor and owner-requested demolitions, is planned to begin in early 2027; Phase 3 will tie demolitions to neighborhood rebuilding. The city estimates a further $40 to $45 million is needed for the full scope, and resident-led neighborhood plans are to be completed and adopted by early 2027. Chief Recovery Officer Julian Nicks and St. Louis Development Corporation President and CEO Stephen Westbrooks both pledged to carry the three-level partnership into the next phases. Residents can track progress at stlrecovers.com, or visit the Recovery Office outreach center at 4401 Natural Bridge Avenue, Monday through Friday, 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.; the Resident Support Team can be reached at 314-207-7395.
