ST. LOUIS — Downtown St. Louis was on the upswing this year. “We had a lot of momentum coming into 2020,” said Missy Kelley, president and chief executive officer of Downtown STL, Inc. Then the coronavirus hit. Downtown streets and restaurants emptied. Baseball and hockey games disappeared along with concerts and conventions that formerly drew tens of thousands. And while hotel doors have stayed open, far more rooms sit empty than full. At least nine downtown restaurants and bars have shuttered. The pandemic has vacated downtowns nationwide, as events canceled and companies kept employees working from home. Officials estimate some will recover quickly with virus vaccinations ramping up, sports contemplating the returns of fans, and some companies already bringing back workers. But cities like St. Louis, which had labored for years to shed urban decay and where renewal has been more tentative, are bracing for a much more difficult recovery.
