Just west of St. Louis lies Route 66 State Park. On those 419 acres once stood the small river town of Times Beach with 2200 residents. Nearly 42 years ago, the federal government bought out all Times Beach properties due to dioxin contamination of its streets. Join us for a conversation including Marilyn Leistner, the last mayor of Times Beach, reflecting on the story of Times Beach and why it is still relevant today.
