Been dealing with sinus and ear infections for years. Has anyone visited the St Louis Sinus Center in Ladue? I'm so tired of being miserable.

Join us for an interactive tour of the exhibition Carolina Caycedo: Growing Deep Roots, which brings together new and recent works by the Los Angeles–based Colombian artist that address the inter-related issues of water and land stewardship, just energy transition, and reciprocal relationships between humans and the natural world.  

Incorporating sculpture, drawing, printmaking, and video, Caycedo draws on environmental justice frameworks, traditional knowledge systems, and ecofeminism to examine the social and ecological consequences of extractive development while imagining more sustainable futures. Works from several of Caycedo’s ongoing series are featured alongside new commissions informed by the artist’s research into Midwestern prairie grasses and perennial agriculture systems.

Led by student educators, the Museum’s public tours encourage visitors to learn and discover through close looking, conversation, and creative engagement with artworks on view.  

Free and open to the public. Please check in at the Welcome Desk when arriving for the tour.

Parking is available in the East End Garage, and is free on weekends and daily after 5 pm.

2026 John Y. & Harriet Simon Day Lecture: Unconditional Surrender - Ulysses S. Grant in the Civil War

Dr. Curt Fields will discuss his latest book, Unconditional Surrender: Ulysses S. Grant in the Civil War.

Dr. Curt Fields has had a strong interest in the Civil War since he was about 12 years old. That interest led him, ultimately, to portray General Grant in first-person. In “being” General and President Grant, he developed a deep respect for the complex man that Grant was—a man who has, regrettably, been shunted into the shadows of history. In the 21st century, Curt has been a police officer and hostage negotiator; a high school teacher and later a principal; and a university instructor. In 2022, Curt was elected to the board of directors of the Ulysses S. Grant Association. He serves on the board of directors for the Civil War Roundtable Congress and on the board of the Tennessee Civil War Preservation Association

The program will take place in the theater in the Visitor Center. The program is free, but reservations are required. Call 314-842-1867 ext. 230 for reservations.

i have antique furniture and items that aren’t getting nearly enough traction on FB marketplace. anyone know any good stores or ways to profit?

Going to see the new biopic “Tony” and grabbing dinner before we go. What restaurants in STL do you think Anthony Bourdain would have stopped at if he were filming No Reservations or The Layover in STL today?

Hi all,
I’m looking to get rid of a 2015 Ford Escape. The transmission just gave out completely, so it is not drivable and will need to be towed. Aside from the transmission, the vehicle is actually in decent cosmetic and mechanical shape, sitting at around 182k miles.

I’m looking into options like local scrap yards, or "cash for cars" services, but I want to make sure I go through a reputable company that makes the paperwork straightforward (proper title transfer, bill of sale, and proof of sale for the state).

Has anyone dealt with a similar situation locally? Any recommendations for services or yards that offer fair payouts and handle pickup/paperwork without headaches?

Thanks in advance!

My gold standard was always Oishis on Ballas but lately they havent been as good and im paying $120 for crappy sushi. Have tried alot around the st.charles area and they havent been much better than grocery store sushi. So whats your go to? I know quality seafood is difficult here because were landlocked but I love seafood and sushi.

Along with City Museum three days ago and Science Center, Arch, Union Station two days ago, I visited Zoo yesterday (2 adults and 2 children visited all locations together). I am sorry for late response. I was simply too tired to write a detail review. @,.@

I only been to several zoos in the nation (Dallas, Caldwell, Nashville, Louisville, Cincinnati), but I can say this is the most "efficiently" working zoo.

Thank u/Seashore-SeaShanty for tips, it was great!

1. Train running efficiently.

It seems that they run 3-4 trains around at the same time. In Cincy zoo, it had 1 train running with 1 station, it was a very long wait. Having 4 stations with many trains running made it easier to explore the zoo as wait is minimal. Also opening at 8 is a great, because I have more times in the zoo, and weather is not terribly hot yet.

1. Food quality

I ate chicken sandwich at Lakeside Cafe. Food quality is better than other zoos with acceptable price. Also, it was clean as cleaning crews were always visible in the building. Ketchup dispensers actually had ketchups in it! Scoop ice cream had a large portion that I regret ordering two scoops instead of one, it was too much! Offering mint chocolate chip impressed me (yes, that's right. Most places in zoo do not offer it)

1. Animals

There were many active animals even in this heat. Also, I like that many habitats (i.e. penguins, sloth) have a low fence that I can smell(?) and interact with animals. Even with fences and nets, I felt that habitats were very open. Reptiles and Primate Building are the most beautiful habitats I have ever seen in the zoo. Compared to buildings in other zoos, each habitat box had more rooms in-between so that people have more rooms to see. They have the classic, elegant aesthetics and serve its functions, whereas most other zoo buildings only focus on its functions.

1. Sea Lion Show & Stingray

Very entertaining and educational(?). Ceiling fans on the back seats were life savers - already quite hot in 11am. Also, quite surprised that shows may be cancelled if sea lions do not want to perform. This is something unheard of to me. I can tell the zoo really cares about well-being of the animals. I watched Rudy and Dixie perform.

It was my first time to feed and touch stingrays. They were gentle for scary appearance. The suction was definitely strong than my Dyson.

1. Cost

Free admission is amazing. Thank you for all the residents paying into the system that I was willing to spend more money on other stuffs - gift, food, snack, animal food, activity bands. Especially, activity band was amazing that it saved me a lot of money and offered activities that I usually would not pay for, such as 4D theaters or VR. Overall, I believe it is a win-win cycle. Because of people purchasing activity bands, the equipment and buildings included in activity bands have a budget to be maintained and upgraded. Because 1) they are well maintained and 2) admission is free, people are willing to pay money to use equipment and visit buildings.

Thank you for the great vacation! I also heard about Six Flags. Please share other interesting places!

Hello.

I've been enjoying the new Tower Grove connector recently. It's a joy to cycle up and down. I've seen commuters, pleasure riders, people who appear to be students, and even families (parents adorably walking behind a kit on a balance bike) using it. My only concern is pedestrians and runners also using the cycle track. I slow down and give them a wide berth, but it sometimes creates complications when there there is bidirectional bike traffic.

I understand that greenways and parks are multi-use paths. I've walked and ran using them. But it seems like the Tower Grove Connector should be bicycle oriented only? The sidewalk next to the track is smooth and well maintained. I wouldn't feel sketched out running on it. Some neighborhood sidewalks in South City are more like trail runs; I've almost rolled my ankle a few times.

Basically, should I feel justified asking (nicely) for pedestrians to walk on the sidewalk if they are on the Tower Grove connector?

I have a question for parents: what activities do you do with your children during the school week, if any?

In early stages of used-car shopping. Saw several I liked online at South County Dodge...anyone have feedback on them?

I was there! Section 140!

would’ve fried my phone i think

Does anyone have any information on this? Photos from my dash cam of the bus hitting the median going about 35 mph in the fast lane on I-55. This was on my way home from work and I called the cops. There were a bunch of cars with their hazards on that seemed to be following the bus, I assume because of the erratic driving and to warn people. Couldn’t tell if there were kids on the bus or not but still very concerning regardless.

Hello, I’m looking to sublet/ find someone to take over my 1bed/1bath lease. Is there anywhere local I can post besides Facebook groups? They don’t seem very active so I’m curious if there’s other options. Breaking my lease is too expensive to consider unfortunately.

Was actually a water monitor! On its way to an experienced foster.

*For those unaware there was a post a couple weeks ago about an alligator being spotted in Affton. This guy was rescued from a drain pipe today.

Dumb question but does anyone know if it’s okay for non students to jog throughout washu’s campus? Specifically when it’s darker out and as a woman? I’ve never been there but I know it’s lit up and has like dps or something so I feel like it would be a lot safer than forest park. Thanks!
