I lived in the Mansion House building on 4th street for a while. The worst part was having to navigate a parking garage every time you want to leave. It was cool being able to walk to BP village. At 25 it was fine. At 31, I wouldn’t want to do it again lol

might be moving to st louis next year so i’m trying to psych myself up now :)) any thoughts on or things to consider about renting a luxury apartment?

moving to st louis? things to know. your car will be broken into/ or hit by a another, people are either really nice or shitty and NEVER... travel off the free way while in the north metro area. good luck.

Step 1 have trust fund

How much yall buying homes for and where

St. Louis is probably one of the best cities to raise a family for sure.

If you like to exercise your neck since it will constantly “be on a swivel” move downtown.

First tip to living in downtown is dont do it.

1) from observation south county, st. Charles county, and east stl are the only areas I’ve seen mobile home neighborhoods… to give insight on the full range of housing options existent in metro area.. Being said, if you’re in the market for a mobile home, this guy is clearly not the RE agent to inquire towards… 💩the way he was glazing the sprawl, you’d think he was the main reason for the blood time myth in wrestling 😂... Further, its worth noting that if from like CA or FL that our elevation is generally high but varies wildly among many relative peaks and valleys throughout neighborhoods so... Flash flood weather proofing and being at a peak is ideal but theres no inherent reason NOT to have a basement. I honestly imagine many if not most of few slab foundations were paranoid movers without geographical context. Last point: there’s a lot of gentrification of more affordable areas anyway. LRA if you have the skill set… but since it’s the Midwest, know that it’s weirder to not acknowledge people so if you’re in the choose to renovate or build in a more affordable area like North STL, if anyone seems to be staring, just give them a 👌🏽 and a smile to let em know you’re friendly and mean no harm. 😬😇 happy home hunting.

I would not move to the city of st Louis for anything

This is a super interesting topic, and an exciting development for STL. I'd be interested to see how the urban planners decided to create this space. I'm wondering if they've thought through how this is going to impact air quality, traffic congestion, and noise pollution. Seeing as Chesterfield is, in my opinion, devoid of a lot of unique culture (as is the rest of STL) it'd be cool to see how this transforms into an urban oasis. Excited to see more videos from you and your thoughts on STL.

It is a shitty, dirty and dangerous place. One of the highest criminal rates in all f usa. No doubt about it.

The biggest issue is the black population in St.Louis. They ruined the city. No one wants to talk about it. Everyone try’s to out virtue-signal each other by avoiding the discussion, but everyone knows it’s true. We need to openly talk about it way more. This is why people fled to the suburbs. There are a tiny amount of good schools in the city because blacks ruined them. It’s just true unfortunately.

It is red neck hell

So you touched on it but I want to get into a little more detail on it. The statistics about us being the most or one of the most dangerous cities in the country is not accurate and never has been. Yes the city has had it's fair share of problems and decline like any American city but we are not, nor have ever been the most dangerous city in America. That divide between the city and county skews the data far more than people realize. Please stop perpetuating these lies/misinformation. I know you're not trying to smear the city here but I think it's important that when we talk about the crime and problems we have here that we make sure to talk accurately about it and be sure to thoroughly explain why the data is misrepresentative of the truth. Multiple economic studies have found that this is literally hurting our region by discouraging people from moving to or investing here. Here's the truth and as a St. Louis area native and resident of downtown for the last 6 years I can confirm that our city is as safe as any other and there are plenty of wonderful things left. I can also confirm that we are beginning to turn it around and grow again. th-cam.com/video/PS4IxDP66xw/w-d-xo.html

Would you include Manchester, MO in this? Same zip code, 63021.

Good to know we have a few more years before traffic is completely untenable.

They shouldn’t have cars near pedestrians. Just have parking garages or garages connected to alleys for cars to go. I can’t relax with cars running about. Like you have to be hyper vigilant if you have a small child next to a road.

Visited several times and had a great time. Excellent restaurants, a great zoo, a good musical and theatrical scene. Was told the crime can be bad, but wasn't exposed to that.

I work remote for a major employer in STL and travel there a lot. My husband and I are looking to move from Texas to STL early next year. We are dead set on the CA. I will reach out to yall hopefully soon!

Interesting video. It took them long enough to figure out what to do with the mall. I worked one of the last days that sears was open, which was near labor day weekend in 2018. I remember talking to coworkers about the developer’s plans at the time to remodel the mall into some apartment complex/shop center combo. I also went to the skate park a few times while it was there. There was a way to get up to the then unused and empty second floor of sears, which was walled off from the main mall after sears closed. It was really eerie. I think the outlet malls are what killed the place. I’m also not sure why they’re wanting to build parks on the property when chesterfield park is right across the street?

Laclede's Landing

I understand it's a promo video for realtors, but downtown St. Louis sucks nowadays, there is nothing up there. City can't fix crime issue, no much people on day time and neither late night. We have one Schnucks store in the middle of downtown, no interesting places for daily life. Anyone who consider moving to STL such suggest Mid Town, Mapplewood are Grove or South Grand :)

St louis native for 25 years. Dont move here, this city is the slowest dying city in america in my opinion, many have tried to fix the infrastructure but at this point with the state of the economics and culture, its never going to happen. Its a wildly dangerous city even in the burbs and the "good parts" in the city are surrounded entirely by dilapidated neighborhoods that most developers know arent even worth gentrifying at this point. Love my city and wish we had govt power to enforce change but idk theres potholes older than me here so its not looking good.

❤ St. Charles!

Chesterfield is Metro St. Louis…do they think St. Peters and Arnold are also not part of the greater St. Louis area??

For the love of God, don't do it.

needs wayyy more trees and maybe a fountain or 5. Saint Charles is meh to me because I lived in the city for so long but could use some green

Ofcourse Chesterfield is St. Louis. For some reason, some city folks, like to say St. Louis County is not St. Louis.( Some kind of imaginary rivalry thing.)

LOL, thanks for admitting the confusion, its not just a me thing.

I didn't know there were so many strip malls in Chesterfield!🌷🍁

Single family homes too!?! I can’t imagine there’s enough space to fit very many, right? Appreciate the video and your thoughts! ❤️

Very exciting development. I like they're not afraid to think big while still taking care of the details in the project. This kind of approach will pay dividends for the future of a community.

This sounds awesome! Feels like the next downtown Clayton! But 20yo collage grads affording to live in Chesterfield? Not a chance haha

Union Loafers… makes great pizza!…and Bagels..

This is awesome, and I can only hope that this new residential area won't be super expensive!

4:30 at least one grocery store should be built along with the residential to reduce the need or desire to buy multiple automobiles

The area should get a tiny home community going. Not a trailer park. But established cannot move tiny homes!

I live for the day that I run into jacob at Just Johns

Those homes are not timeless. No thanks

We moved to the Grove (FPSE) from out of state just a few months ago. Overall we are super happy with our decision. We are in a townhouse that is incredible inside and out. Rents are pretty high for the area but cheap compared to where we moved from.. This is probably the best place you can live if you are working at BJC hospital. The amount of reno and new construction going on is really wild with a handful of lots and rubbish houses still remaining that I hope are redeveloped soon.

It's a racist city too

I have not considered The Grove but looking on a real-estate site it seems nice. I love how you show St. Louis in a very St. Louisy way. You dont hype up the city you just show and tell about it. Keep up the good content. I will definitely be looking to work with you if life brings me back to the area.

Tx Torontonian here. Appreciate a review of what appears to be a kool place to visit on a future getaway.

Our little piece of heaven ...lol

Is the shirt choice in support of the “Gayborhood”? 😉👍🏼
