311352951 <br />SOUTH METRO <br />West St. Paul considers <br />redeveloping city-owned <br />Thompson Oaks Golf Course <br />West St. Paul is looking at other options for its golf course <br />as it tries to revitalize Robert Street. <br />ByJessie Van Berkel <br />Star Tribune <br />JULY 1, 2015 —11:14PM <br />RICHARD TSONG-TAATARII <br />at the Thompson Oaks Golf Course in West St. Paul, Harriet Anderson, 75, left, <br />was “blessed” by playing partner Pat Tiller, 90, after Anderson sank a putt. <br />As golfers teed off at Thompson Oaks Golf Course on a recent sunny <br />afternoon, WestSt. Paul City Council members a couple blocks away <br />discussed a plan for the busy Robert Street corridor that could include <br />transforming the municipal course. Into what? They’re not yet certain. <br />The closure and redevelopment of golf courses is a well-documented <br />trend. Twenty-eight courses have closed in Minnesota over the past <br />decade, according to the Minnesota Golf Association. Thompson Oaks <br />faces the usual problems —financial struggles, a lack of interest among <br />young people and too much competition —butits closure would be a <br />fairly unusual move. <br /> <br />
