St. Louis’ Central West End, a bustling mixed-use district located on the eastern edge of the city’s ever-popular Forest Park, is incredibly walkable and offers visitors a variety of amenities and attractions to suit any taste.

The CWE is a growing neighborhood rich with history, ready to embrace the changing urban environment. In an atmosphere of historic St. Louis architecture and pedestrian-and bike-friendly streets, you’ll find great places to shop, dine, and explore. Home to some of St. Louis’s oldest shops, one-of-a-kind businesses, and unique attractions such as The World Chess Hall of Fame, the CWE is often described as ‘urban eclectic.’ The charming people and places of the CWE evoke a feeling of community and create a sense of place throughout the neighborhood — a neighborhood with endless energy.
The streetscape is characterized by its stunning architecture, including a mix of the finest French Tudor, Colonial, Federal, Greek Revival, Mid-Century, and Postmodern styles in the St. Louis area. Surrounding the Central West End are some of the most prestigious single-family homes and private streets in the Midwest. This urban oasis is bolstered by the Washington University School of Medicine, Barnes-Jewish Hospital, and Forest Park — the nation’s seventh-largest urban park.
Come see why the American Planning Association named the Central West End one of the nation’s top 10 neighborhoods!
