So you’ve probably heard by now that in a closed session meeting last week the Special Administrative Board of St. Louis Public Schools voted to reverse the deed restriction that prohibited closed SLPS buildings from educational use for 100 years. The RFT and Post-Dispatch covered it and hopefully The American and West End Word will at least give it a mention in this week’s edition. As the RFT noted, the details of the reversal are still undetermined and it will not go into effect until June 30th which precludes us from any immediate benefit. As we begin looking for permanent neighborhood facilities for each school, this will certainly have a positive impact on our search.

Our initial site is 4011 Papin, in Forest Park Southeast (63110). The deed restriction reversal won’t take effect until June 30th which is too late for any new school to get into an SLPS buidling for 09-10. Ever the skeptic, I’m waiting to see if they actually place the buildings scheduled to close this year on the market.
