More History of the Uline Arena

I ran a Google search and located a link page for the history of the Uline arena on the HSMS site. One of the links no longer works (but surrounding info does give you what you need to locate the article for purchase). The other link is for an old Washington Business Journal article. Even though the article is old, it is not outdated because it is strictly historical info. The Uline Arena (located right over by the NY Ave metro) is set to become condos (with a grocery store likely occupying the actual arena space).

Also see the links below for more Uline links:

The two newer best sources are the National Register nomination. (I have a copy of the Word Document since I was the primary editor) and the paper-presentation produced by Justine Christianson. Her paper was published in the journal _Washington History_. Spring/Summer 2004, 16 (1)
Justine Christianson, "The Uline Arena/Washington Coliseum: The Rise and Fall of a Washington Institution," 16-35. The latter is available at MLK's Washingtoniana collection.
