The Missouri legislature has approved HB 3231, a bill aimed at stimulating hundreds of millions of dollars in private investment for Downtown St. Louis. The legislation is specifically intended to facilitate the redevelopment of major vacant properties, including the AT&T Building and the Railway Exchange Building, while also fostering innovation districts and supporting Main Street revitalization efforts across the state. The bill is currently awaiting the signature of Governor Kehoe.

This legislative action complements other recent measures, including the passage of the Missouri Downtown Economic Stimulus Act (MODESA), which will support upcoming projects such as the Millennium Hotel redevelopment and Ballpark Village Phase III. Additionally, the St. Louis Board of Aldermen is set to introduce a proposal to invest $55 million in Rams settlement funds into downtown infrastructure, a move expected to be matched by private business capital to further drive regional economic growth.
