I guess I missed when the Drury Inn by the Dome/Convention Center got downgraded to a Pear Tree Inn.

^It always struck me as a bit odd that they had three Drury Inns downtown anyway. Diversifying a bit almost makes sense.

That being said, Campo has owned the Chemical Building for over 2 years and the ground floor is still unsecured and open to trespassers and looters. You'd think that they'd want to protect their 5M investment and try to keep it from going up in flames, but what do I know.

Was downtown doing some work on our loft yesterday. Took a long walk to check out the old neighborhood. Enjoyed a great Cuban at Havana's and was really encouraged to see all the construction activity at the Jefferson Arms. it will be great to see that building reactivated. Conversely, it looks like the Last Hotel has fallen victim to their ownership issues. I hope they can figure it out.

Not OP, but it's still open, as far as I know. There's a somewhat unprofessional looking sign on the door (hastily created on a computer and printed off) that says something to the effect of "no public restrooms" and says to call a certain number if you have a room.
You kind of expect a higher degree of professionalism and attention to detail for the several hundred per night they charge at busier periods.

Sounds like the shady hotels in the shady section near the Frankfurt train station.eee123 wrote: ↑Feb 09, 2024Not OP, but it's still open, as far as I know.

I’m being extremely generous by just calling it ‘shady.’

reddit STL is reporting that the LeMeridien is wide open As in the side door is blatantly open and ANYONE could walk right in
Does Campo have a separate development arm? I'm only seeing architecture and design services on this website i.e. they wouldn't be the owner of the Chemical Building.Tim wrote: ↑Feb 09, 2024Mark Twain Hotel Renderings: https://www.jtcampo.com/p-tapestry-st-louis

"Status of the project isn't clear. Online city real estate records show the property at 205 N. Ninth has an outstanding 2024 property tax balance of $83,801. John Campo didn’t return a request for comment regarding the judgment and status of his firm's proposed hotel project."

^ fwiw online is free from SLPL. And the Post-Dispatch print edition, which posts pretty early in the morning.
I tried accessing online through SLPL but didn't have any luck. It seemed like the paper was only available in person at certain locations. I'd appreciate any tips.

If you have an SLPL card you should be able to go here and access a variety of news sources online including the Post-Dispatch and Biz Journal. Hopefully this helps!Tim wrote: ↑Apr 10, 2025I tried accessing online through SLPL but didn't have any luck. It seemed like the paper was only available in person at certain locations.
