Saint Louis Place Multifamily Home for Sale

St. Louis Place, a neighborhood with a rich 170-year history, is poised for significant change with the upcoming National Geospatial Intelligence headquarters set to open in 2026. Located about 2 miles from downtown, this area has faced challenges but remains a community with strong historical roots. Museums like the George B. Vashon Museum and the Griot Museum of Black History, along with local festivals, celebrate its cultural heritage. The neighborhood features a mix of historical homes and modern builds, with many properties currently under $130,000 due to numerous unoccupied properties. However, the new NGA West Campus is expected to spur renovation and new construction, potentially transforming the area. St. Louis Place Park, spanning over 14 acres, offers residents a walkable space with a playground, basketball court, and splash pad. Nearby attractions include Fairground Park and the expansive Forest Park, which hosts a zoo, museums, and various annual events like the St. Louis Shakespeare Festival and The Great Forest Park Balloon Glow and Race. Despite its proximity to downtown, the neighborhood has limited dining options, with Crown Candy Kitchen being a notable exception. Public transportation via Metro St. Louis buses and access to Interstates 44 and 64 provide convenient routes to downtown and beyond. While the area experiences extreme weather, including tornadoes, the community remains resilient and hopeful for a revitalized future.
