Old Mobile Dispute __ "Environmental and historic preservation groups have
failed to halt the development of an industrial park near the buried remains of
Old Mobile, an early eighteenth-century settlement 25 miles north of present-day
Mobile, Alabama. The first capital of French Louisiana, Old Mobile, which is on
the National Register of Historic Places, shares a stretch of the Mobile River
with several chemical plants. Fearing further encroachment, protesters had
temporarily blocked the permit for an industrial park inland, but the Army Corps
of Engineers approved the project, and construction began last summer." read the
