Well, maybe St. Louis's finest (building inspectors) will stop by and put a little yellow "notice of stop work order" on the fence. Stop those backyard contractors from doing shady work.

(Which is my way of saying that's got to be a website error. I've been wrong many many times before, but if they put a stop order on that . . . Wish they'd put more stop orders on unlicensed demos.)

They have a permit for foundation work.

I worked on a building in Memphis that got its building permit one month before substantial completion. As long as the building division is part of the conversation, they won't stop work. Especially if they know the architect and contractor.

^I've never been far enough up the totem pole on a big project to really be in the know about the permits. Just a lowly A/V installer, mostly. I'm a little surprised you can get away with waiting that long. But maybe it's like a lawyer friend of mine once said. "A good lawyer knows the law. A great lawyer knows the judge." A good contractor knows the code. A great contractor knows the inspector.

I believe the contractor is within their company - Big Sur Construction. The architect is VE Design Group, which isn’t within their company, but they’ve worked with them a lot.

Three interior renderings showing the lobby and lounge. They're still a "work in progress"...

^Looks like a photocopy of the Steelyard's lobby with different chadeliers. I suppose it's fine for what it is, but there really is an incredible sameness to a whole lot of these projects. We'll see how it all ages in twenty or thirty years, I suppose.

Pershing was closed today. They were pumping concrete for part of the walls of the garage ramp.

Red crane on site to lift precast garage pieces in place.

So, speaking of Redel's restaurant (multiple posts back), the former proprietor of Redel's is my uncle, Lee Redel. Very fond memories going to his (and John Rice's) restaurant as a kid. Talk about "cool uncle".

Unrealistic pipedream because the restaurant industry is brutal and I'm not a masochist or loaded: Redel's 2.0 in the Hudson retail space. Just a fun, slightly family-history-biased idea that sounds cool in my head, but less so in practice. Any investors out there looking to rekindle a restaurant concept that was hyper successful in the 80s or 90s!?

Progress from today. Looks like the red crane will have to be moved out of the hole soon to finish assembling the garage, unless all they're doing is another row of parking. Crane base is still in place, just harder to see now that the garage is going around it. We would see that up in, what my guess would be, sometime in March.

Progress update from today. Notice the pool at the corner of Pershing and Debaliviere.

^ Still plans for a crane on this one?

(Great shots by the way!)
