Episode Details

Webster University is eyeing demolition of the historic Luhr Building — acquired in 2009 or 2010 — after failed sale attempts, with buyers citing costly retrofits as unviable. Vice President Ryan Elliott says appraisals confirm clearing the site is most profitable, but the university’s asking the historic preservation commission for permission to tear it down — while leaving the door open for alternatives. The commission has paused its decision for 30 days, urging Webster to provide more details and explore public sales to balance financial goals with preservation values.
