New nonprofit seeks to restore Fairground Park as ‘crown jewel’ of north St. Louis

The historic Fairground Park was once a shining jewel that held fairs, an enormous pool, amphitheatre and art gallery. Throughout the decades, the park has been severely neglected and has become a ruin of its former self. The new nonprofit Fairground Park for All aims to revitalize the park and remind residents in the Fairground Park neighborhood of just how beautiful it can be.
