Who to Contact

What do you think about the proposal to lease 12 acres of Forest Park to Barnes-Jewish Hospital?

Are you...

  • Opposed to the loss of recreational facilities, including the Central West End’s only playground and free tennis & racquetball courts?
  • Concerned that the City isn’t getting enough money for the land?
  • Troubled by the precedent this sets for the preservation of green space not only in Forest Park, but in other areas of the City?
  • Disturbed by the hasty process that continues to advance the proposal?

Tell them about it!

Contact the special Committee appointed by the Mayor to review the deal.
