St. Louis was once a thriving city of nearly 800,000. Now less than 300,000 and going down. The life has been utterly sucked out of the city, and the crime problem in the city is being exported across the Mississippi River to the Alton/East Alton/Wood River areas. The life has also been sucked out of those cities, as well. Saw that six years ago when visiting.

People left these older homes to move into newer ones back in the day. Most of these had lead or galvanized water pipes old rotted cast iron sewer pipes - no insulation- most of the roofs have 3 inches or more build up on them costing a fortune to remove and replace. Hmm wonder why they are dilapidated.

St. Louis was once the 4th largest city (back in the 19th century), and 2nd most important city for auto manufacturing. Key events & periods that changed everything: * The Great Migration *Nixon's Trip to China...and the Trade Agreements that eventually came out of it. * The Fair Housing Act of 68. * Brown v. Board and subsequent disegregation. All fueled White flight, especially in the 50's, 60's and 70's. At the same time...the growth of those good paying industrial jobs began to slow and eventually go away. Over time...the life is snuffed out of these neighborhoods. No investment. I saw a couple of streets where trash, debris and old furniture was just tossed out on the street. I guarantee it has been there for months if not years. These politicians don't even care enough to at least have the debris and trash removed from the streets. The mayor is sitting on tens of millions in extra funds. She could put a cleanup crew together. There are also abandoned homes that are beyond repair. Follow procedures to take possession of those properties and demolish them. Then zone the areas for the kind of projects needed and then give the land away to those who promise to rebuild and invest in the property (and hold them to it via a written contract). Most of those buildings have been rotting for 5, 10, 20+ years. No politician doing anything. Luckily these neighborhoods are only a sliver of the overall St. Louis Metro area (10-15%) but there is currently a serious crime problem...which really isn't being addeessed. A lot of political failings. Two top politicians (the #1 from the County, and the #2 most powerful from the city) were indicted and convicted on federal corruption charges in separate cases in the last 5 years. The place is a mess. Their fumbling & misguided approach contributed to the loss of the NFL as well. Definitely a depressing place. Fixing it will require all new leadership. The current officeholders aren't capable due to the political culture and their mindset of following the same vision and strategy or having no real strategy at all.
