I live in Saint Louis and only go near that clusterdoodle of interstates when my number comes up for jury duty.

Ha! That 44/55/40/64/70 interchange is a real bad mother. And being able to successfully navigate it is a good test to distinguish a local from an out of towner. Also, that’s right near the so called “depressed section” (if you know, you know). Once was driving with a visiting out of towner who heard the depressed section mentioned during a radio traffic report. They asked if that was referring to the bad part of town. My instant reply was “why yes, yes it is.” And yes, I laughed at my own joke.
Also, the CBS logo visible on the 1 Memorial Drive tower to the left of the Arch was the (former) office and studios of KMOV channel 4, until they bailed out to the suburb of Maryland Heights a couple of years ago. Nobody wants to be downtown anymore; even KSDK Channel 5 is bailing from their longtime HQ on Market Street for space in the Highlands office park development across 40 (I-64 for you non-locals) from Forest Park. Which, somewhat amusingly, is a stones throw away from where KTVI channel 2 used to be located until they moved to a new facility in Maryland Heights many years ago. There’s your useless STL trivia for the day.
