A bold idea for eyesore parking garage spiral downtown: The Louggenheim

The eight-level Famous Barr parking garage is—for better or worse—among the most recognizable structures in downtown St. Louis. A “fusilli-like spiral of concrete” was how one local writer once described it. It resembles an extremely low rent version of one half of Chicago’s Marina City. It juts out over the sidewalk and for the past decade has primarily been a canvas for graffiti artists (it also made a cameo in the Wall Street Journal’s infamous story about downtown St. Louis’ Doom Loop). No one building a parking garage these days would build one this way.
