Tower Grove South hosts a broad range of building types. Exploring the neighborhood by foot is a great way to uncover hidden design gems - fascinating brick details, finely detailed cornices, turrets, stained glass, and even an all steel "Lustron" home!
Our residential architecture includes everything from the stately mansions of Utah Place to postmodern infill, from modest two-family turn of the century flats to an art deco apartment building, and everything in between.
The commercial architecture is similarly varied. Scattered throughout the neighborhood are corner storefront buildings. The South Grand business district is lined with wonderful storefronts, many of them restored.
Fabulous stone churches and other monumental buildings (including several Ittner-designed schools) call Tower Grove South home.
