Urban Oasis

.
Urban Oasis
This building at 23rd Street and Washington appears to be rehabbed but empty. (Unfortunately, I know some people like that.) If this is an urban oasis, the water has all dried up and the date trees have withered. And oases are located in the middle of a desert. What does this say about the surrounding neighborhood? Perhaps the developers could have chosen a better metaphor.


Downtown St. Louis 365 has decided to use a lifeline.

    I'm trying to figure out what that cool wood is beneath the window.

    I suppose the price of an oasis is quite horrendous.

    Who are you calling 'all dried up and withered" ???
