The apartments were designed as living and working space for artists and have been marketed to many Washington University School of Art alum

As the name implies, Downtown West Saint Louis is west of the downtown district, a few miles from the Mississippi River. This vibrant urban neighborhood is about three miles from the renowned Gateway Arch monument and houses some of the city’s biggest attractions and landmarks. Neighboring office buildings, a diverse selection of restaurants, and vast museums, Downtown West is also home to the Saint Louis Wheel, the Enterprise Center, and the Stifel Theatre. Urban parks and plazas add a breath of fresh air in this urban hub. Green spaces such as Aloe Plaza, Memorial Plaza, and Kaufman Park host community events like Taste of Saint Louis. Of course, being next to Downtown Saint Louis means residents only have to walk a few blocks to experience more thrilling nightlife sports, eateries, and attractions. And if that’s not enough, Downtown West offers quick access to Grand Center, the city’s arts district filled with galleries, museums, theaters and more.
