Yep, time for Drury to step up for St. Louis City/Downtown or as moorlander noted, a sleek modern hotel tower overlooking Energizer.StlAlex wrote: ↑2:05 AM - Jul 02You'd have to imagine there's a redevelopment plan if they're going through with a demolition. It's owned by Drury.

With the new hotel down the block and the greenway right at their front door. I wouldn't be surprised to see a redevelopment of that property. Makes perfect sense. Even if it's just a regular hotel.
Yes and yes. Syberg's would be appropriate and would kill it in either location. Especially with event based crowds.GoHarvOrGoHome wrote: ↑2:44 PM - Jul 02The old Mike Shannon's would be a cool spot for Sybergs. I could also see them going into the restaurant space at the renovated Edison Hotel
Closure confirmed within this St. Louis Magazine article:stldotage wrote: ↑1:47 AM - Jul 02Just spoke with my regular bartender at Sybergs downtown. She said they were given notice that the location is closing July 18th and that the hotel would be closed and demolished. She didn't know the future plans for the site but said Sybergs offered her a job at a different location and said they were considering other downtown/City locations.
"The artifacts will need to find another home on July 18, when the restaurant will close. “Our lease has expired and it’s time for us to find our home for the next 36 years,” Syberg says, adding that changes in downtown office traffic following the pandemic contributed to the decision. “We don’t have the office workers, the foot traffic, we once did,” he says. “We’d love to find a place nearby that maybe offers different opportunities. We’re not in any rush, but we would like to remain a presence in the area.” He adds that the closure affects only the downtown location and that employees have been offered positions at the company’s other restaurants."
Mike Shannon's is such a good idea, I don't think it could possibly happen it's such a good idea. They'd have a constant customer base with the hotel and it would get tons of ballpark traffic.GoHarvOrGoHome wrote:The old Mike Shannon's would be a cool spot for Sybergs.

How many times has social media posted rumors from Sybergs staff/regulars that the Market Street location is closing? It's about as bad as the current administration proclaiming the war in Iran is over.stldotage wrote: ↑1:47 AM - Jul 02Just spoke with my regular bartender at Sybergs downtown.

Not sure if Levy and the Blues would want another sub-company in the arena. They already have the Sugarfire/Hi Pointe/Steve's Hot Dogs group plus Rosalitas.jtlq53 wrote: ↑3:13 PM - Jul 02Given their connection to the Blues, wouldn't one of the retail bays there make a lot of sense? And correct me if I'm wrong, but they supposedly have a tenant for one of the spaces already lined up, right?
Before I knew about the closure I had always hoped the hotel would at least reorient towards the stadium, building out the restaurant space facing 22nd Street and adding a roof deck to the Syberg's. I presume whatever the plans are now will therefore automatically be more stadium-centric.dbInSouthCity wrote: ↑3:27 PM - Jul 02Sybergs is closing on the 18th, that's no rumor. City SC has an intention to re-develop everything from the stadium going west to Jefferson and to do that, the states MODESA bill, which built BPV, was extending this past session for Millenium, next phase of BPV and to include soccer complex (also KC Current complex). MODESA lets the developer keep 85% of sales and income tax generated on site for 30 years to finance the project.
It was great to have to Mayor join my party, we chatted for about 45 minutes about all kinds of stuff.addxb2 wrote: ↑9:56 PM - Jul 02I was happy to see on Instagram DB and Cara Spencer enjoying the World Cup match together. Denis, please tell us you spent the entire 90 sharing your Downtown wisdom with the Mayor? STL would be better off lifting your knowledge.
