A group wants to implement a streetcar project to connect the Missouri History Museum in Forest Park with the Delmar Loop dining and entertainment district. There are streetcars on display at the opposite ends of the proposed route.

Ron Lizorty tells it like it is.

"Lions Gate" in University City, Missouri.

From www.waymarking.com/waymarks/WM7ZRH_Lion_Gates_University_...: "These lions guard the Gates of Opportunity to University Heights on Delmar at Trinity in University City.

These lions were commissioned by E.G. Lewis the founder of University City in 1909. The sculptor was George Julian Zolnay and the original lions were constructed of concrete and each weighed 8 tons. The lions originally stood atop 40-foot pylons of limestone designed by Thomas Young of Eames and Young Architects. Over the years the pylons became unstable and began to lean. In 1991 the pylons were reduced to 14 feet and the concrete lions were replaced with lighter fiberglass ones. The original lions are in the collection of the Missouri Historical Society."

On the subject of my Nikon F3 being cursed, yesterday I failed to load a roll of film properly and didn't notice until I'd already "taken" about 26 pictures.

Loaded it correctly today and took some photos down on the loop. Ran into my friends Sarah and Calypso. Took pictures of them, but haven't gotten that film back yet.

University City, a streetcar suburb of St. Louis, will soon have streetcars running along Delmar Avenue again. Ground should be broken in 2014 for the Loop Trolley line that will extend from Forest Park in St. Louis to University City City Hall.

Saturday evening's peaceful protests in the Loop neighborhood of St. Louis gave way to unlawful agitators who caused damage to the glass fronts of many of the businesses. On Sunday, local artists helped out by covering the boarded-up windows with some beauty. Quite heartening. #delmarloop #universitycity #stlouis #missouri #heartening
