One Tree Hill, Season 8

Millie:
I'm standing here today on a small piece of history in Tree Hill. No costumes, no catchphrases...just a story about a local landmark that is soon to be erased, developed into condominiums unless something changes. The landmark is called the Rivercourt, and for those who loved it, its absence will be heartbreaking. For more on this story, here's someone who learned his craft here...my colleague, Marvin McFadden.

Mouth:
It’s been host to authors, NBA players, local legends and fashion designers. Notable musicians have played here… both concerts and games of ‘horse.’ And on gentle summer nights as the staccato rhythms of worn leather on fading asphalt mixes with the white noise of the distant nightlife across the Cape Fear, Kids have grown up here. I should know, I was one of them. Now development threatens to erase this place. Commerce is commerce. That's not really the point, is it? The truth is, a town's identity is made up of places like this one. And once they're gone, they're gone. Some people who care about this court have uncovered a nest nearby that could be the key to stopping the bulldozers you see behind me. But even so, do we have to find a technicality to preserve our town's history? [Looking to Nathan] A lot of lost kids found their way to something better in this park. In a confusing world, at a confusing time in their lives, they found something that made sense here, and they became better people because of it.Surely that is worth preserving. For Millicent Huxtable...Who I love with all my heart,I'm Marvin McFadden reporting.
