The Central West End
St. Louis' Central West End includes private streets lined with gorgeous homes, luxury apartments and condominiums and some of the city's finest commercial and religious architecture. An overall richness of detail and quality of construction create a strong sense of prosperity in the district. The first construction boom began in the 1890's. Adherence to historic... (more about this neighborhood...)
Downtown
Because of Missouri's State Historic Tax Credit, developers began developing the downtown warehouses in earnest in the early 2000's. Warehouses were converted into lofts and condominiums and the revitalization of downtown. With Washington Avenue as its hub, upwards of 10,000 people now occupy downtown in this vibrant... (more about this neighborhood...)
Hyde Park
Most of Hyde Park is located within the boundaries of Bremen, a town laid out in 1844 by a group of German landowners including Emil Mallinckrodt. By the time Bremen was absorbed by the city of St. Louis in 1855, the agrarian suburb had been transformed into a thriving town. Most of the... (more about this neighborhood...)
Old North St. Louis
The area was once part of the town of North St. Louis, laid out in 1816 with three circles probably inspired by the contours of Indian mounds. A few of the area’s 600-plus buildings date from that decade. The best known survivor from that era is Crown Candy Kitchen. Over 90% of... (more about this neighborhood...)
Benton Park
Most of the early homes were small, one story brick cottages built in the 1850’s and 60s by German immigrants. Less common was the presence of French-born immigrants. Impressive homes, bedecked with ornamental brick and terra cotta designed in Queen Anne and Romanesque Revival styles stand alongside earlier Italianate and Second Empire... (more about this neighborhood...)
Compton Heights
In the mid 19th century, the area began to attract well-to-do St. Louisans seeking a semi-rural setting.

Fox’s multi-block planning and millwork company. Part of that firm’s... (more about this neighborhood...)
Soulard
In the 1890's the neighborhood was a sea of red brick: simple vernacular Federal or Italianate row-houses, alley houses, pre-1860 and Victorian cottages and "flounders". A few homes of the considerably wealthy were erected showy Second Empire townhouses, Queen Anne and Romanesque... (more about this neighborhood...)
Shaw
Evidence of Henry Shaw's plan to create a controlled residential area around his country estate first appeared in 1857. The area imposed deed restrictions establishing a uniform building line and limiting construction to two-story brick buildings. Flora Place became a private street in 1897 when owners entered into an agreement to improve the... (more about this neighborhood...)
Carondelet
Founded in 1767 and a separate community until 1870, Carondelet was first settled by Creoles, French and Canadians. By far the largest concentration of mid 19th century stone houses can be found in Carondelet. Fine craftsmanship, clean lines and individual nuances add subtle variety to these vernacular houses built by Irish and German... (more about this neighborhood...)
Lafayette Square
Although excellent examples of terra cotta and decorative brickwork a bound, the district’s collection of post-Civil War stone front townhouses is unmatched in the Midwest. Many of them face the park, a 30 acre public square. Others are located on Benton Place, laid out in 1868 as an oval private street around a... (more about this neighborhood...)

(more about this neighborhood...)
The Hill
Within the area is the highest point in the city. Important to the development of the Hill was the discovery, in the late 1830's, of valuable clay deposits. During the 1890's Italian immigrants arrived in a constant stream. Many worked in the clay products plants. Shotgun frame homes of three rooms... (more about this neighborhood...)
