Soon to open at the northeast corner of Macklind and Finkman, in the city's Southampton/Princeton Heights area, is "Sammy's Pizza". Sammy's Pizza will reopen another of the surging Macklind Avenue commercial district's small-scaled, historic, corner-commercial buildings.
The operator is a member of the Racanelli family, known for their pizza restaurants in UCity and Webster Groves. Construction is underway this week. More information about the new restaurant is available in the current issue of Sauce Magazine. From the Sauce article, the owner is promising a family-style restaurant with a feel reminiscent of his Italian mom's dining room back in New York City.
From a walkability standpoint, within a half-mile walk of this location there are probably 1,500 homes. Maybe more. And that walk takes you past historic homes, down tree-lined streets, with many other interesting stopping places along the Macklind corridor.

Man, Macklind is really becoming an impressive little strip. My cousin just bought a house near Bonita/Macklind, so I'll definitely give this place a try.
Thanks for the 411.
Hi Rick. I'm a newcomer to your blog, but it's really well done.
KDHX.org is working on setting up a blog aggregator for STL and beyond blogs, and we'd love to syndicate STL Rising.
The idea is to have something like STL Syndicate, but with a much wider scope.
We'll provide clear sourcing and links to your site with each entry from the feed.
Let me know if you're OK with this or if you'd like more info.
Thanks!
