History
7
Steinberg Skating Rink was funded by a private gift that required it to be open to all people, making it one of the few desegregated venues in St. Louis at the time. Within months of opening, it welcomed more than 60,000 skaters, including children of all ages from across St. Louis. Around the rink and throughout Forest Park, significant landmarks, landscapes, and natural areas have been restored and continue to be maintained through the public-private partnership of the City of St. Louis and Forest Park Forever.
