Media coverage of golf course plan
Much ado about golf

Various Media coverage of the new golf course.
 
Note, that of the items listed, 5 appeared less than a month before the start of construction.
Of all these items, only the July 25th article in the Times-Picayune explores the wider issues of the renovation plan.
Unfortunately this alarming article appeared only days before the park was fenced off and the construction began.
