Granite City Multifamily Homes & Duplexes for Sale

Granite City, a neighborhood with a rich industrial history, is evolving into a vibrant community. Founded in the 1890s around a steel plant, the area is now transforming its small downtown into a trendy entertainment hub. The Mill, a 220-seat concert and event venue, and the bustling Niedringhaus Avenue with its businesses and Civic Park, are key attractions. The Downtown Diner, with its distinctive yellow walls and vinyl record-covered floors, is a local favorite. The neighborhood features a mix of historic Queen Anne houses, early 20th-century bungalows, and new construction homes, catering to various budgets, particularly appealing to first-time buyers. Homes here average 1,273 square feet, smaller than the national average, making them ideal for those seeking less space. The Granite City Community Unity School District serves the area, with students attending multiple schools throughout their education, all within 7 miles. Granite City High School offers dual credit courses in collaboration with Southwestern Illinois College and St. Louis University. Wilson Park, the largest of the neighborhood's dozen parks, offers a skate park, garden, and songbird site. Residents also enjoy proximity to St. Clair Square mall, 15 miles away, and downtown St. Louis, just 10 miles to the west, providing additional shopping, dining, and cultural attractions.
