Missouri Creating New Downtown Entertainment District

This week, Missouri Governor Mike Kehoe joined civic and business leaders at St. Louis Union Station to sign a landmark bill that clears the way for a vibrant Downtown entertainment district. The legislation — designed to boost tourism, public safety, and economic growth — could provide local leaders with the ability to use state-backed financing to attract major concerts, sporting events, and big-ticket attractions to the region’s core.
