I especially enjoyed the projects in the County/St Charles as I rarely make it out that way. Had no idea there were that many projects going on all over!
Also, I need to make it up near UMSL. The Natural Bridge/115 project looks fantastic! That could be a huge game-changer for the area.

Thank You! Glad you enjoyed your experience. I'm gonna keep tweaking it, of course. Found some broken links and stuff, but it's a LOT of work. It should get better - but not so bad now - that it is FINALLY launched.

One of the reasons I did this is because St. Louis can be too provincial. People are clueless about the scope of projects happening (or that are proposed).

The county and river barriers keep people from being able to see what's really going on in the metro. As I was doing this I was sh*t..........."there is so much going on" and it was a daunting task to build this. A few people have already expressed that they didn't know so much was happening.

The 115 project was particularly awesome.

I added some Metro East projects last night.

LOL! The pics are coming!!! And as I post them, it's important to remember that the little cranes are just as important as the big ones.
