Since Nobody Has Ever Thought of This Before September 26, 2007

What a great idea — let’s replace a largely unpatronized urban shopping mall with another urban shopping mall, along with more office space (which will largely go unleased), condos (which will largely go unsold), and a hotel (which will largely go unprostituted).
And, since this article brings up the matter, how will this project affect the theoretical Ballpark Village, which already has its first theoretical tenant? And if stuff is actually built there, and Centene does move away from Clayton, how will this make Charlie Dooley feel? How long would it be before he starts whining about the city stealing the glory from Clayton? How ironic that would be, considering how city mayors Jim Conway and Vince Schoemehl always complained about county executive Gene McNary and his county’s “stealing” business and population from the city? It would be, assuming that these downtown developments ever happen, and actually become prosperous, which I doubt.
