At this time the suspect is in custody, and the three victims are in stable condition. We are grateful for that. The city will be working with the area businesses to find the best approach to keeping patrons and employees safe. That job is made more difficult when the state of Missouri allows unfettered access to guns, such that a 19 year old shooter was able to obtain a gun and use it to harm three people yesterday. This incident should never have happened, and as our police routinely remind us: when everyone has a gun, we are all less safe. Rather than a change in police oversight that did nothing to decrease crime in Kansas City, the state could help St. Louis by focusing on passing common sense gun control."

Big thank you to our Water Division employees for working to resolve this.
The developer stated that the city's process for approving demolition of the current building required pre-development costs in excess of $1 million. The conversion of this site into a tax-paying entity with residents living in it would have been great for the city and the neighborhood.

The Keeley proposal for 4568 West Pine (former Boy Scouts building) has been withdrawn. This is bad news for the city, because we currently get $0 from this site since the Boy Scouts are a non-profit.

Had a great time with the @stlurbanists.bsky.social riding the #10 bus down Lindell Boulevard to Vandeventer and walking back down to Euclid Avenue. The goal of the Lindell redesign is to improve the street for all modes of transit, something these young advocates are very passionate about.

A view of the old downtown firehouse at 314 Tucker. It is built of old brown and black brick. In this picture, you can see two big bay doors where the fire trucks exit. There are two red lights in the middle between the doors, that flash to warn a truck is coming out. Above, two half circle windows sit above the doors. The top of the building has crenellations, like a castle.
A close shot of one of the doors. It is dark brown, made of metal. Next to it, on the brown brick, three numbers show the address: 314. It happens to also be the area code for most St. Louis area phone numbers.
A wide shot of the whole downtown firehouse. It is an old brick building with crenelations at the top of the center of the building. Large doors and windows on the front of the building feature half-circle windows above. A lone American flag flies atop the building.
I had the opportunity to tour the downtown firehouse a couple of weeks ago. It was great to talk with our firefighters and see pieces of history. You probably drive by this building and donβt even realize itβs there.
