Not to be confused with its neighbors Downtown or Midtown, Downtown West is a distinct, rapidly developing corridor with a "big city" feel. Home to perhaps the highest concentration of St. Louis' cultural insititutions, residents of Downtown West will enjoy convenient access the Stifel Theatre, City Museum, Union Station, City Hall and Soldiers Memorial. One could easily spend a day (or two, or three!) soaking up the sites.

Anchored by an array of mid-rise lofts along Washington and Locust, life in Downtown West is culturally rich and an entertainer's dream. Tourists to the area should remember to "look up" when wandering tits streets, the architecture is truly a delight.
