 | | UMSL, which got its first development plan after MetroLink opened, is gearing its expansion around three MetroLink stations: the two that are on campus and the North Hanley Road station, which abuts the campus. |
 | | Other investments spurred by MetroLink, she says, are the construction of a 16,000-square-foot developmental child care facility and the construction of 62 detached single-family houses, with plans by four developers for the construction of another 120 houses. |
