^You must’ve took that photo shortly after I left the roof of the Busch garage. I was in a orange shirt. Do know that crane will be taller than the one on site already.

^ha! Wave at the courthouse next time. I spend a shameful amount of time staring out the window.

Are they doing a crane jump during the initial set up? Or do those sections just lie there waiting?

The top climbing unit on the tower and more tower sections on the trailer suggests that the crane will go taller.

Ill wave next time. Yes. The crane will jump a ton today. It will be taller than the current crane on site by 30 feet or so.

Seriously. Although I don't recall Phase I having one, so maybe the Cardinals / Cordish just don't really care?

Yes, those are for the office and hotel section. There will be a third one going up within the next two weeks for the residential tower.

There was a webcam for Phase I located on the Hilton 360 Rooftop Restaurant, but when the project was completed, it was shut down. I still check it from time to time to see if it's up and running, but no luck yet.

There will be webcams.

According to Paric, there will be two, one on the Residential Tower and one on the office/fitness portion. Both will be on top of the Hilton's East Tower. I got a preview today from a friend on site, it is a neat perspective and I think all of you are going to enjoy the views. It is a "Truelook" system like SLU Hospital.

Thanks for the info. Here's a little preview of the west portion.

This sounds very odd. A tropical bar is moving into the Howl at the Moon space.

So one lame, hokey chain bar leaves and is replaced with another one? BPV has definitely earned the right to be called the “bar mall.”

Howl will probably look at other spaces near the Ballpark or Wash Ave and open up in the next few months or year. They're not closing because they didn't make money... Cordish just wants to get another of their concepts in there to keep as much money from BPV as possible. Look for more of their concepts to be announced as part of the new phases soon. My money is on at least one of Mosaic and Pizza Bar - maybe the DeWitts open up a Dewey's instead of Pizza Bar though.

The Cards and Cordish have total control over who they want in by being able to control the rents. They can jack it up skyhigh, drive out non DeWitt/Cordish owned companies, pay themselves rent, and keep all the beer profits. It's a smart business move, even though it's not exactly great for us who prefer non-chains.

I tried to register what seems like a year ago (twice) and never got activated so don't hold your breathe. That said I didn't plan on stirring the pot. If they want to then that's on them. I like to think that is beneath us.

But more BPV related, it is really nice to see it all moving along and more news coming out here and there. I need to get down there to see the new cranes.

I assume this is old news but I see the hotel has a website. https://www.loewshotels.com/live-by-loe ... s-missouri

^That’s come up before. It’s the Westin Peachtree Plaza in Atlanta standing in for the Millennium Hotel tower.

I really hope the new hotel is glazed white brick. That would look fantastic. Kinda hard to tell what the material is from the new rendering.
