Downtown St Louis

Recent History

Downtown St Louis has undergone a tremendous renaissance in the past decade into a thriving destination for restaurants, cultural events, and significant residential growth.  Beginning in 1999 with the formation of Downtown NOW by then Mayor Clarence Harmon, plans were established to begin rebuilding Downtown with plans to address different regions of downtown. 

The plans for development in the Downtown Now plan centered around 4 specific areas:

  • Ballpark / Cupples Station
  • Old Post Office District
  • Downtown West
  • Washington Avenue Garment District

A rarity in governmental planning:  the reality far exceeded the original goals of Downtown Now.  Over 5 billion dollars have been invested in developing Downtown St Louis and its not over.  The Partnership for Downtown St Louis is continuing the growth by developing the Downtown NEXT plan for growth between now and 2020.  Downtown Next is focused on continuing the momentum towards re-establishing Downtown St Louis into a thriving community center, and increasing population to 20,000 in the downtown area by adding different types of residences from the lofts and condos available presently.

Downtown St Louis population has continued to grow by approximately 500 people per year, based on numbers published by the Partnership for Downtown St Louis. Current figures are that downtown population is 14,000 persons.  Demographic data for downtown also points to a more educated, professional, higher paid population as many of the lower rent apartments were cleared out and larger, newer spaces were rented and sold for a higher market rate.

Premier Realty Exclusive has been actively involved in the Downtown Renaissance by selling and reselling downtown lofts and condos since 2004, participating in Partnership for Downtown St Louis committees and subcommittees, participated in the Downtown St Louis Residents Association, participation in St Louis Association of Realtors Urban Affairs Committee, and maintaining membership in the St Louis Convention and Visitors Commission.  Premier Realty Exclusive represents buyers and sellers.  They have represented many individuals as well as a majority of the developers in the downtown area;  having represented CH2 Development, Loftworks,  McGowan Brother Development, Blue Urban, and currently representing  Sherman and Associates.  Premier Realty Exclusive has listed and sold in nearly almost every downtown loft or condo building.

Types of St Louis Lofts and Condos

Downtown St Louis has a variety of home types, but mostly modern lofts and luxury condominiums and apartments with a very small number of single family homes.  Compared to most areas, Downtown Lofts & Condos are usually newer, more modern, and more affordable than other areas such as Clayton or the Central West End.

 

 

SOFT LOFTS

Loft types range from the "Soft Loft" which is mostly finished interiors with just elements of lofts like exposed duct work or pipes.  Buildings Downtown that are generally considered "soft lofts" are the Terra Cotta Lofts, The Annex Lofts, the Louderman Lofts and the Syndicate Condominiums.

 

INDUSTRIAL LOFTS

The Industrial Loft is the other extreme from the soft loft.  Usually built in a former factory or industrial type building, the industrial has an edgy modern style with higher ceilings and more exposed elements of the building such as exposed brick, exposed piping and ductwork, exposed ceilings (timber or concrete usually), and usually concrete or distressed hardwood floors. Good examples of the industrial loft are the Banker's Lofts, Elder Shirt Lofts, 10th Street Lofts, Moon Brothers Carriage Lofts, the Lofts at 2020, and the Printer's Lofts.

Variations exist and some industrial lofts are more 'finished' than others based on the condition and style of the existing building or the developer's vision.  

 

LUXURY CONDOS

Some Condos don't qualify to be called 'lofts' at all.  There's no exposed ductwork, no exposed brick or electrical conduit.  Ceilings are finished with drywall and trim, just like a traditional home.  In Downtown St Louis, are usually high rises and mostly fall into the catagory of the LUXURY CONDO classification.  The Marquette Condominiums and Edison Condominiums are a great example.  There aren't any exposed features such as ducts, and the units are finished completely in an elegant, modern style.

More affordable condos downtown that aren't lofts are the Blu City Spaces and Columbus Square Condos.

The Downtown St Louis loft districts has some of the best preserved historic buildings available anywhere!

The Premier Team,  Chris & Lisa Grus,

have been active in the downtown St Louis real estate market, selling more lofts downtown than any other Realtors. 

 

Many changes have taken place in the loft district since 2004, when the Premier Team took its first listing downtown.  At that time, very few Realtors that had worked in the loft district, many buyers purchased lofts were unassisted by professionals and cooperation from developers was limited. 

 

 

Other than working with HUNDREDS of ST LOUIS LOFT BUYERS and helping in OVER $60 Million in LOFT SALES, we've participated in several organizations, committees, studies and interviews for the betterment of the Downtown St Louis area.  Downtown NEXT, Urban Affairs Committee of the St Louis Association of Realtors, and the St Louis Convention and Visitors Bureau continue to place the Premier Team in the middle of the Downtown St Louis real estate market and events throughout the St Louis loft district.

We invite everyone to experience the excitement of downtown living and are happy to assist home buyers in checking out the area with the Premier Team!

 

Loft Living in Downtown St Louis or Luxury Condo Living puts the urban dweller steps from everything!  Downtown Living may not be for everyone, but for those looking for an exciting yet relaxed lifestyle, no yards to mow or gutters to clean, beautiful views, lots of friends and plenty of things to do, Downtown is the right fit!  Walk to the Cardinals game, spend a few hours in CityGarden, cheer on the Blues or catch a play at thePeabody:  there's too many attractions to mention!  Galleries, museums, cafe's and great new public spaces are taking over what used to be a deserted neighborhood.
