On September 1, 2017 I wrote that the St. Louis Blues had started
grading ground in a public park for their practice rink. I assumed that they
would get away with it, as the organization has lots of money to spend in
convincing municipalities to see things its way.
But once it was informed of the situation, the National Park Service
nixed the project, and the Blues are looking for a new spot. It feels good to
see that business interests didn’t get to steamroll over the wishes of ordinary
citizens.
My thanks to the citizens who fought for the park, instead of being
like me and just assuming that there was nothing to be done.
