The 314 Podcast

Alex Oliver on Downtown STL


Listen Later

In this episode of The 314 PodcastSarah Fenske talks with Alex Oliver, who’s making a big bet on downtown St. Louis even as other developers pull out of the market. He discusses why he’s bullish on Wash Ave, the simple change that could help make downtown safer, and what he thinks city leaders got wrong in the Rams settlement fund debate.

Then, Sarah chats with SLM staff writer Ryan Krull about the bizarre scandal that’s rocked the St. Louis Sheriff’s Office—and the systemic changes that could reform a troubled fiefdom.
