I worked down by Union Station many years ago. Everyone got along then. Before the media started dividing everyone.
I used to go over to Union Station Market at noon and buy wonderful produce. Of course the owners refused to renew the merchant’s lease and the whole place was remade into fast food spaces close to the Convention Center. Never was a big draw.
After the Metro Link went in, we used to hop it down to Union Station for lunch and a quick shop. Or we’d go to Famous Barr or Dillards/St. Louis Center.
That St. Louis center was terrific shopping and food court back then. All gone last time I was there.
