 Since the Downtown Development Action Plan was adopted in 1999, over $4.2 billion dollars have been invested in a remarkably diverse portfolio of projects throughout Downtown St. Louis. From dramatic streetscapes to major projects like the new Busch Stadium and a new Lumiere Place Pinnacle Casino to dozens of historic renovations that now house hotels, lofts, offices and retail, there is a new spirit in downtown St. Louis.
The momentum continues to build as an additional $1 billion dollars in development is planned for 2008. This includes major mixed use projects like Ballpark Village and the Centene Towert, the 4th St Historic District at Chouteau’s Landing and over 450 additional residential units.
Even as investments grow within the targeted areas of Washington Ave, Post Office Square and the CBD, development is now expanding north, south and west to areas of downtown where new investment seemed inconceivable only a few short years ago.
Despite the high level of activity and growth, a wide variety of development opportunities are still available in Downtown St. Louis. The Downtown St. Louis Partnership works closely with the Regional Commerce and Growth Association (RCGA), the City of St. Louis and the St. Louis Development Corporation (SLDC) to attract and support new investment in the downtown area and to create an exciting and attractive place to live, work and play.
