^ okay wow. It's amazing the volume you can pull from 39 gates. So 50 gates is likely very long term if it ever happens. Granted it is years away but the STL master plan calls for 62 gates…I know they have nowhere near the capacity to fill all of those so it will be interesting to see how things pr...

I took a drive down Main today. Track has been set/laid through 36th/37th st heading south. Trenches have been dug through Westport Rd.

I stopped by today, good space and friendly Barista. Would go back again!

I didn’t see anything notable other than LGB which was already announced.
