This level of investment makes Pinnacle a major force in the renewal of downtown St. Louis, and it will further strengthen our market position. After examining the growth of the market and the status of the completion, we've decided to build a facility that is significant in both scope and quality.

Things are always better in the morning.

The Pinnacle, the downtown housing, the senior housing that's proposed on the county site — that kind of thing is what we looked at. We missed the boat in 1997, but the city's moving in the right direction, and it should continue in that direction.

Philadelphia work force investment boards and the businesses down there have been very involved in the process and the work force training grants and industry partnerships. All of the counties around the state have been very involved.

We will bring investment because we're a political force that believes in the market. Peru will be a free-market island in South America, but also a model.
