Should Lawrence Memorial Hospital turn Woody Park into a parking lot?

Asked at The Merc, 901 Iowa on August 11, 2009

“If the city is getting fairly treated out of the deal, sure.”

“No, absolutely not because we need more green space.”

“I’ve never even heard of Woody Park, so I think that would be a good idea. The parking by the hospital is terrible.”

“I see no need for additional parking at Lawrence Memorial. ... If there is to be any alteration made, perhaps suitable accommodations could be found elsewhere to honor Mr. Woody.”
