WELCOME TO “ST. LOUIS’ BUZZIEST DISTRICT”
In the heart of St. Louis, the Locust Central Business District includes two of the City’s ‘buzziest’ live-work-play areas, Midtown Alley and City Commons, as well as CITYPARK, the spectacular home stadium of St. Louis CITY SC.
Beautifully restored commercial and industrial spaces are reanimated as locally owned restaurants, boutiques, coffee shops, bars and lounges, music venues, artist studios, and creative agencies, interspersed with loft and apartment style residences. The LBD is also home to a variety of health and wellness services, houses of worship, charter schools, and vital social service agencies. Significant new mixed-use developments are coming.
Location is everything…for walkers, cyclists, transit-riders, and drivers.
Walkers and cyclists have easy access from the LBD to Downtown, Grand Center and Midtown attractions, Harris Stowe State University, Saint Louis University, and the National Geospatial Agency.
For cyclists, the planned Brickline Greenway and the 20th St. Brickline Extension will intersect in the LBD.
For transit riders, Metrobus lines already travel along Olive St. and Delmar Blvd., and the future Metrolink Green Line will cross through along Jefferson Ave.
For drivers, the LBD is easily accessible along Olive St., Washington Ave., and Jefferson Ave. Interstate 64 is, at most, a mile away. Street and public parking is ample – don’t be afraid to park and walk!
Have it all. All in one place.
Here you’ll find long-time favorites Fountain on Locust and Schlafly Tap Room with a variety of newer hot spots: Golden Gems and Hidden Gem, Egg Midtown, Ash Cigar & Bar Lounge, Float STL, Wellspent Brewing Company, Omen Coffee, The Biscuit Joint, Latté Lounge + HG Eatery, Kain Tayo Filipino Cuisine, Blue Jay Brewing, Videira Wine Shop & Bar, Anita Café, Brick River Cider, Red Flag, Pepper Lounge, and The Hawthorn.
Live where you hang out!
The living is easy in modern, amenity rich loft and apartment homes in stunning historic buildings. We’re talking about The Malone, The Victor, The 22 Apartments, and many others. Coming soon: More residential restorations and new-construction mixed-use developments!
