Scottrade Center renovation heads to court

Related Topics: Scottrade Center, Scottrade

Scottrade Center renovations are currently underway, and are being conducted 24/7 to meet the deadline for the September 17th Ed Sheeran (!) concert. Few Blues fans can disagree that the building, which opened in 1994, needs upgrades badly. Where the issue is concerns who is paying for the upgrades. To resolve this problem, the Blues are suing the comptroller and taking the issue to court.

The agreement to fund a $64 million renovation was approved by the St. Louis board of aldermen in February, but city comptroller Darlene Green is refusing to sign off on it due to concerns about the city’s credit rating.
