I’m not the right guy to review the quality of a restaurant so I figured I would point you to someone more qualified. Joe Bonwich just reviewed the Stable in the Post Dispatch and you can see it for yourself here. I was happy with my food during my one visit there for dinner, but I really entjoyed the late night atmoshpere, which I sampled twice. The outdoor seating area looks to be about done and business seams to be booming. If only they would get their in house brewing and distiling up and running.

I know I focus a lot on local matters on this site, but I also like to keep up on national and regional real estate investment news as well. Whether I find info via magazines or online, I always think its a good idea. Seeing as most of this news is beyond my ability to verify, I usually take these stories at face value. Maybe I should rethink that policy.

Check out this article from the June issue of Multifamily Executive entitled A New Brew. Its about St. Louis’ own Lemp Brewery in Benton Park. WHile its great to see the property in the national media, the artilceis less than accurate in terms of details. THe article acts as if the redevelopment of the old brewery had already started. I don’t knwo who they have been talking to, but maybe they should verify their sources. Makes you wonder how many other articles out their are balogna.

About a month ago I posted about a couple of microbreweries coming to the Benton Park Neighborhood of St. Louis in the coming months: Mattingly Brewing Company and the Stable. Info has been scarce on the Stable until I got a email from a reader a couple weeks back. Thanks to that contact, I had the opportunity to tour the facility this morning and chat with one of the owners. I’m happy to say that the project is coming along great and that they are on track for a June opening. Read more

Mattingly MicrobreweryThey say that good things come in pairs. I’ve always been rather fond of microbreweries, so I guess in stands to reason that they would hold to this rule. If everything goes as planned, the Benton Park Neighborhood of South St. Louis, will be home to two such establishments by the end of 2008: Mattingly Brewing Company and The Stable. Read more

The South Side Journal is reporting that this project is “a go.” Despite continued doubts from local observers, Garrison Development reps are saying that they are moving ahead. For a more detailed update, check out the full article.

This is one of those properties that has been “on the verge” of being redeveloped for years. It’s one of the few local “icons” that hasn’t been either developed or demolished. A good project centered around this complex would do a lot for the area in southern Benton Park and Marine Villa. But maybe I’m just biased because I live in Benton Park. Nevertheless, its just a matter of time before something finally happens to it. I just hope this isn’t another one of those cases where the momentum builds up only to fizzle away a few months later. From the sound of the recent article in the Post Dispatch it at least seems like this proposal is being treated somewhat seriously.
