Why don't St. Louis's neighborhoods have promo videos?

...Like Detroit has.



That's the New Center neighborhood's promotional video, offered up by Model D Media. They also have some detailed and very helpful neighborhood guides.

I could definitely imagine some videos on life in Dutchtown, St. Louis Hills, Old North, Holly Hills, Lewis Place, the Hill, etc. It seems to me that newcomers to the city have to rely on real estate agents, corporate types, or other parties somewhat disconnected from the realities of city living to help them find a place to live. These videos could help shape attitudes toward urban living in St. Louis. They'd surely be a great resource.
