Good Developments Group’s founder and managing partner Greg Gleicher told the LCRA board the fire that damaged the site was caused by two trespassers attempting to destroy each other’s property after breaking into the building.  Gleicher said there has been 24/7 security at the site since the fire.

So they're basically acknowledging there wasn't any security before the fire, and the City is just content with that? 

So this was initially advertised as a $1.2B project. I wonder what the dollar figure is on the "scaled back" version of the project. 

I had/have my fingers crossed that one of St Louis big general contractors whether it be Clayco, McCarthy, Alberici, etc.  can land or have a presence in this development.   St Louis region punches above its weight as far as contractors going.  Of course, my wishful thinking is McCarthy would relocate there Corporate HQ in this development.

When the downtown development bill map is drawn for the city. I'm sure Chouteau's Landing will be included. I'm sure that will help the feasibility of any development down there.

Does anyone know if any of the old buildings are staying up? I think the most western warehouse was relatively unscathed by the fire.

I know they have specifically said that the westernmost building that had previously burned is definitely coming down. I wouldn't be surprised if they find a way to keep that concrete corner building (2nd and Cedar) that still looks to be in structurally decent shape.

An absolute crime
