DISTINCTIVE MIXED USE DISTRICT - COMING IN 2021
The Edge district will be a distinctive mixed use district that completes the Historic Lafayette Square neighborhood. It will have apartments, townhouses, offices, restaurants and other retail. The pedestrian oriented site is just one block from the beautiful Victorian Lafayette Park, the center piece of the neighborhood as well as a short walk from 16 restaurants, wine bars, and an ice cream shop as well as other business and services. It is also across from the growing restaurant area developed by the Hamiltons including Vin de Set and PW Pizza.
Lafayette Square neighborhood is a thriving urban neighborhood with businesses, homes and apartments. The area hosts many events each year including regular summer concerts in the park, festivals throughout the year, two popular house tours, art shows, antique shows, many weddings and a nationally recognized bike race among other private events. For young families, there is a successful charter school adjacent to Lafayette Park. The Edge expands on this wonderful pedestrian oriented, safe neighborhood. It will be an ideal place to live, work and play.
Ideally Located Within the St. Louis Region.
The site is just minutes away from access to all of the major Interstate Highways serving the city.
It is a mile from downtown, two miles from the growing Cortex Innovation District and close to many of the major employers in the region. It is just a few minutes drive to both of the major medical centers as well as St. Louis University and Washington University.
Soon it will also be just a few minutes from the new soccer stadium and the new National Geospacial Agency, both under construction.
The next branch of the city’s light rail system is planned to go right by the site.
