You'd think, but the groundbreaking is already set.
I have no issue with modern. Stupp is modern. Too often Modern means quick cheap easy and ugly sheet metal. Also, when does the digging up of greenspace end? When there is no more greenspace? Just passionate about my park.

Lord knows they have a lot of events. Pride, Festival of Nations, Food Truck Fridays, 5Ks, weddings, hundreds of private events at Stupp and Piper. Issue is they want more and more events. Never enough. So they have keep building, building. And they build cheap nowadays. Not brick. Not stone. CHEAP

The absolute worst is the Starbucks on S. Grand. Every morning, rush hour traffic is backed up on Grand. Screw all the morning commuters. I am getting my to-go coffee. Meanwhile there is Hartford Coffee two blocks away.

That style was Old St. Louis at it's best. Soon to be gone forever.

Generic corporate chain restaurants smothering small mom and pops and making everything boring and the same ain't progress in my book.

Sad. I had high hopes for that corner. Apparently South Kingshighway will remain Suburban Fast Food Row.
