SLP SCHOLAR EMILY MULLIN
From the Re-Echo, June 2007

St. Louis Park was recently the topic of study for Breck School student Emily Mullin. She was one of six seniors who have researched the histories of six Twin Cities suburbs. Led by Macalester Professor David Lanegran, the students worked through their preconceptions about nondescript places to find a rich history and many stories to tell.

Emily spent time at the SLP Historical Society’s Lenox location, reading files – she was especially interested in the Creosote Plant, which admittedly provides one of Park’s more colorful sagas. She also learned about the City’s false start under the TB Walker era. Emily presented her findings on April 17 at Macalester College. Congratulations, Emily!
