Greyhound Demolition Sparks Community Debate | St. Louis News

St. Louis just demolished the old Greyhound terminal—sparking outrage and confusion when neighbors point out other buildings posing real danger, like the one leaning over a school. Frustrated residents turned to a private contractor offering to tear down hazardous sites for just $1, who’s already taken on several properties and is now targeting the school-threatening building—even chasing down the owner overseas. While Alderman Rasheen Aldridge admits hazardous structures should be top priority, he questions the Greyhound move, hinting at crowd control motives. Critics argue the city should fix real threats, not tear down landmarks. Meanwhile, the land at North 14th and Palm is set for redevelopment—possibly benefiting the school—and the Greyhound lot’s future remains uncertain.
