-Lodging Hospitality Management (LHM) owner plans a $45 million aquarium that will hold sharks and thousands of marine species

-requires 65,000-75,000 square feet space available in Saint Louis Union Station

Looks like the new aquarium will be replacing the mall which failed. The city does already offer a great zoological park.

So we can't get an MSL team but we get an aquarium instead? Granted I'm sure if we have sharks down town I'll go check it out but this is a weird way to segue from not losing an NFL team, failing to get an MSL team to now getting an aquarium.

hopefully they can hold some of those invasive tilapia that are ruining the Ssippi, and not let out any more invasive species.

I wish they do something like this with the failed Xanadu project in NJ

So instead of keeping an NFL team, their gonna keep fish?

I don't want them back if they have the same incompetent idiots running the organization. I honestly don't know how those idiots were able to pull off a short period of success from about 1999 to 2003 or so. I give total credit to that to Dick Vermeil, Marshall Faulk, Isaac Bruce and Kurt Warner.

I think aquariums are cool so I'd like to check this out.

The World Chess Hall of Fame is also in St. Louis. It sounds like I need to make a trip there.

The aquarium project has potential to turn out very good. This will help heal the wounds from the disastrous Saint Louis City Museum.

If you're into chess then St. Louis is about the best city in America to be in. It's home both to the World Chess Hall of Fame as well as the very important St. Louis Chess Club and Scholastic Center.

In fact, Garry Kasparov is coming out of retirement next month for a tournament there in St. Louis.

that will hold sharks

I had to check wiki

The St. Louis, Missouri metropolitan area has a history of tornadoes.

 

[Kneepocalypse]

That actually sounds relatively cheap

Cost less money.

And people like to watch fish in an aquarium. Nobody wants to watch the Rams.
