Really?
I was always told city park was the largest privately owned city park in the country? Not arguing just curious.

One would think Mitch and his crew of flunkies would do some research on this. God bless the people who are trying to save the monuments.

how Landrieu could not see this as nothing but a huge cluster for the city is beyond me. He has to be the biggest buffoon to take the office of mayor of new orleans. think about that for a moment.

Actually, this is what wikipedia says:

I always thought it was considered to be owned by the state, but maybe I'm wrong and just confused with them administering it. I knew their employees were always deemed state employees.
ETA, but if the State is simply tasked with "administering" the park, it may be an overstep of the city's authority to try to say what they must do with statues on its grounds.
