Report Summary:
Rich with iconic architecture, history, and culture, the Gateway Mall in downtown St. Louis is one of America’s well-known public spaces. Yet despite its strengths, the Mall and its adjacent real estate is grappling with a host of challenges that mirror the issues in downtown cores across the country. Low economic activity and changing workplace habits, among other issues, have hindered the downtown’s ability to fully represent the diversity and richness of all that St. Louis has to offer. In response to these concerns, ULI’s Advisory Services program convened a group of real estate and land use experts to examine opportunities for reimagining the Gateway Mall and enhancing equitable growth throughout downtown. Collaborating with Greater St. Louis, Inc., and St. Louis Development Corporation, the panel analyzed policy, governance, and finance strategies for revitalizing the Mall and advancing economic opportunities for all St Louisans.
