St. Louis does not have a branding issue; it just needs the initiative to clean itself up. Every Wednesday our company has a team meeting where we discuss issues/solutions facing different sectors of our business. A tenant recently sent us a maintenance request asking someone to throw away a rotten fruit delivery that was made to a nearby apartment. Our property manager replied to the tenant that they should put the bag in the trash container that was several feet away. Problem solved! Every day/week/month/year, St. Louis is reminded of its issues: County/City divide, crime, declining population, lack of investment/businesses, vacant buildings, etc. Sounds like we should rebrand STL as “Sisyphus City.” (Note: In Greek mythology, Sisyphus was a king that was sentenced by the gods to an eternity of frustration where he would push a boulder up a hill only to see it roll back down every time it was close to the top) It starts with small things. Sometimes lazy people do not put trash in the dumpsters located in the alley behind my house. I don’t let it sit there magically wishing for the trash fairy to pick it up. I get my hands dirty and clean it myself. St. Louis needs more “doers” if they want to see progress. I am not sitting this one out for my son’s generation to clean things up. It is my job as a parent and STL citizen to make it a better city for them. Time to take out the trash! #community #initiative #inspiration #grit #fight Greater St. Louis, Inc.

What do you know about sales? 🤔 The "Bliz-aard Ball Sale" was an innovative and thought-provoking art performance by David Hammons in 1983. On the streets of New York City, Hammons set up a vendor-style stall to sell snowballs of varying sizes. This performance art piece was not just about the physical act of selling snowballs; it was a nuanced commentary on the commercialization of art and everyday items, as well as a reflection on racial and socioeconomic issues within the context of street vending and the art market. The event was a clever intersection of art, commerce, and social commentary, showcasing Hammons' ability to transform a simple, everyday object into a medium for profound artistic expression and discussion. It challenged passersby and the art community to reconsider the concepts of value, commerce, and the role of the artist in urban spaces. Help spark creativity and innovation by sharing this post. Encourage your network to think outside the box and see the extraordinary in the ordinary! David Hammons, Bliz-aard Ball Sale, 1983. Performance view, Cooper Square, New York, 1983.
