Two concrete courts and water fountains will open to the public later today near the intersection of Arsenal Street and Bent Avenue.
The courts were a long time coming. Tower Grove Park previously had courts, but they were removed in the 1980s as maintenance costs exceeded available funding, according to the Post-Dispatch.
Plans to bring them back were part of Tower Grove Park's 2017 master plan. And after breaking ground in June, the courts are finally here.
A grand opening will kick off today at 3:30 p.m. with free popcorn and youth basketball clinics starting at 4 p.m.
