The Board of Commissioners of Tower Grove Park has elected Steven M. Scott, president of SSM Health Saint Louis University Hospital, to a three-year term. His addition brings the number of commissioners to 19, with varied backgrounds in business, finance, the arts, architecture, law, and human services. Currently celebrating its sesquicentennial year, Tower Grove Park is led by an independent board of commissioners that was created by Henry Shaw when he donated the Park to St. Louis in 1872. Tower Grove Park is one of the nation’s eight National Historic Landmark parks. Opened in 1872, the Park is at the center of some of the most socio-economically diverse and densely populated neighborhoods in the region.
