    • ALT2: ... that a lagoon in New York City's Pelham Bay Park was dredged so that it could host the 1964 Summer Olympics rowing trials? NYC Parks. "The lagoon was widened and dredged when it was chosen as the site of the 1964 Olympic Rowing trials. In the process many small islands in the lagoon, such as Rodger’s Island, were eliminated. Parks built a viewing tower along the southeast edge of the lagoon for the trials, and the United States 1964 Olympic Rowing Team went on to win two gold medals, one silver medal, and one bronze medal in Tokyo, Japan."

  • Comment: The article passed GA review in this diff on the talk page, but the main page didn't automatically update, so I manually added the {{good article}} icon. Also, there are a lot more possible hooks, I just listed three but I can provide more on request.
