Post-Dispatch Editorializes on Arch Grounds

The St. Louis Post-Dispatch today editorializes on the discussion about the Arch grounds in an oddly-named article entitled "Top Shelf." What's most interesting is that alongside the Danforth plans the editorial discusses the merit of Rick Bonasch's plan for remaking Memorial Drive, with nods to Steve Patterson and myself (at least in the online version). Once more, grassroots urbanism trickles up. Usually, the ideas get the nod without their source named.

The best part about the editorial is that while welcoming Danforth's leadership it also calls for inclusion of different vision: "In short, there’s still time for sharp thinkers and innovative ideas. But they must get into the process. And they should be welcomed."

We must be doing something right.
