Given that a lot of the Schnucks family lives within 5 minutes, you'd figure this store would get all tricked out with the best stuff.

Given Schnucks'/Desco's past history I assume its not a grocery store?



Yes, just what Manchester Rd needs: more empty retail space. [/sarcasm]

Restaurants. The existing building is going to be torn down, IIRC.

I've also heard about a major retailer that's considering the old Schnucks location. Can't divulge who it is though.

In this morning's Post-Dispatch, there was a mention that they were trying to put two unnamed retail stores and a sit-down restaurant into the area that Schnuck's use to occupy. It also mentioned that Chick-Fil-A was interested in opening a location there, too.

Was it Michael's?
Michael's will take up about about 23,000 square feet of the almost 58,000-square-foot old Schnucks building. The remainder of the space will go for another junior anchor and smaller retail and restaurant businesses.

Mosaic, a popular restaurant downtown, wants to open a place at the eastern end of Des Peres Centre, Holman said. The development will also feature a free-standing Chick-Fil-A. Existing businesses at the site will have the opportunity to stay. Businesses still operating during construction are Cartridge World, a UPS Store and a Nail Salon.

Looks like Mosaic, Michael's, and Chick-fil-a could be opening in the not too distant future.

Michael's? Are we about to have another round of Manchester Road Musical Chairs?
