Party At The Park Pacific

.
Park Pacific 2012-01-24 2

Had some fun last night. I was invited to a reception at the downtown Park Pacific apartments, maybe because I've worked downtown for ages and maybe also because of this blog. It was built in the 1920s as the headquarters of the Missouri Pacific Railroad. Those of you with literary interests would recognize it as the building where the father worked in St. Louisan Jonathan Franzen's bestseller The Corrections. It's been beautifully restored into rental apartments. The party promoted this building and downtown living in general.

Everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves, including two of the bartenders, above. The choice of wine to sample was a very serious decision, as you can tell from the couple below.

More of this over the next few days.
