In 1925, a newspaper sold lots in a riverside resort town with a subscription. Fifty-eight years later, federal officials announced a permanent buyout of the town and its more than 2,000 residents; what was left was demolished and the debris buried on site. Times Beach, Missouri: dioxin waste from a Missouri chemical plant's "Black Tank," oil sprayed on dirt roads, 62 horses that died at a stable between 1971 and 1973, the record 1982 Meramec flood, a $33 million Superfund buyout, an on-site incinerator, and a mound under what's now Route 66 State Park. Here's what the record establishes, what's still contested, and what remains an open question.
