Crown Square is the most significant redevelopment to take place in the Old North Saint Louis historic neighborhood in many decades. This ambitious undertaking includes the historic rehabilitation of 27 buildings into 80 mixed-income apartments, townhouses, lofts and live-work spaces and 34,000 square feet of street level commercial space, with an array of "green building" features built into the development. It includes the removal of the two-block long "pedestrian mall," tying the neighborhood back together with new streets, sidewalks, lighting, parking and other public amenities. If you are unable to make the street festival, please stop by soon and see the amazing transformation for yourself!
