The Jock's coming down!
So that's it...no more Jock Harty Arena. No more Styx, Crowded House, Elvis Costello. No more sweating it out though an exam. No more running on the track while watching the pick up hockey or figure skaters practice their moves. No more climbing up over the fences late at night to get onto the old tennis courts (not that anyone would do such a thing).
Things change, and in our city, we need to welcome ANY new ideas that actually make it past the talking stage. But the Jock just never seemed like it was one of those obsolete relics that needed replacing.
Well, it'll be gone soon. The wrecking has begun. In a few years the new Queen's Centre will stand where the old rink, pool and gym are now. Pretty exciting.
And yet.
A bit of a bummer for anyone who never climbed up over the fence late at night to get on the old tennis courts.
