Two workers finishing framework at the Tot Lot.
One of the Washington University Street Revival members and Bill Kohn, area resident, put the finishing touches on some framework at the Tot Lot. Response from the immediate neighborhood has been good. Nearly all the materials for the lot were donated and Washington University students have helped greatly in building the lot.
