Would love to see WUSTL/Barnes involved in Railway or any of the large vacant lots or buildings - they have the capital and they will bring the jobs

is this hypothetical, creative thinking (which I appreciate) or is this somehow based on something you've heard? Be shocked if WashU moves *anything* from the BJC campus, as the campus/transit connectivity provides enormous economies of scale. From the outside, those dorms look terrible, btw. like a cheap hotel.dbInSouthCity wrote: ↑5:02 PM - 1 day agoSpace is already constrained at BJC HealthCare / Washington University Medical Campus, so WUSTL acquiring St. Louis College of Pharmacy, it would make strategic sense to fold those existing pharmacy school buildings into the broader medical campus. That could free up an opportunity to relocate the pharmacy college itself to the Railway Exchange Building. It’s about 1000 people between staff & students. May need some other functions at railway but STLCOP has dorms too
I would love to see that; however, since WashU owns Fontbonne, I believe that will address any needed space.
