Emerson Park Placemaking Project to be Unveiled on Aug. 21

The project transforms the concrete area between the bus bays and MetroLink entrance into an interactive, playful, engaging space that gives a nod to the history of music in East St. Louis and makes it part of the fabric of the community. In addition, a mural on the pedestrian overpass depicts the historic importance of music in East St. Louis. The community event set for 9 a.m. at the station, 929 N. 15^th Street, will feature formal remarks, the ability to explore the new space, local music, food, fun and more.
