Neighborhood
Moon Brothers Loft Condos are located in the Washington Avenue Historic District in Downtown West, St. Louis, Missouri along Washington Avenue, and bounded by Delmar Boulevard to the north, Locust Street to the south, 8th Street on the east, and 18th Street on the west. The buildings date from the late 19th century to the early 1920s. (Source: Wikipedia) Most of the buildings are large brick buildings that were designed as warehouses for the large garment production in St Louis. When New York took over the garment industry many of these buildings were vacated and underused due to functional obsolescence.
St Louis is known for its conservatism and true to its reputation, lofts were slow to catch on. The 10th Street Lofts at 1010 Saint Charles is where it all began. The 10th Street Lofts closed the first condo sale in downtown STL in 2000. Not only that, the first open house at 1010 Saint Charles produced 13 sales and was attended by several hundred people. (This information came from my friend Judy Korn who was the listing agent for the building/event.) The redevelopment started in the 1990’s when Missouri adopted a tax credit for the redevelopment of historic buildings making large scale renovation financially feasible.
The St Louis Cardinal baseball team is HUGE in St Louis. Ballpark Village is a very popular place for game day and really any day for Cardinal fans.. Ballpark Village is a mixed-use retail, entertainment, office and residential district in St. Louis, Missouri, spanning seven city blocks . I am admitting it is one place where I am too old. They are currently underway with the construction of a $260 million 700,000 square foot second phase expansion of Ballpark Village. The development includes the construction of One Cardinal Way, a 29-story luxury high-rise residential tower, a ten-story Class-A office building anchored by PriceWaterhouseCoopers (PwC), the construction of an upscale Live! By Loews Hotel, the development of a three-story spectacular glass retail pavilion that will be anchored by the 31,000 square foot Onelife Fitness, a nationally recognized, state-of-the-art health and fitness club, and the development of additional street level retail, dining and entertainment.

A Major League Soccer stadium is within walking distance of the Moon Brothers Lofts. CITY PARK is the home of St. Louis CITY SC and reflects many of St. Louis’ most amazing attributes, including its diverse neighborhoods, growing culinary scene, innovative technology, inviting community and a spirit of a new St. Louis. The 32-acre CITYPARK stadium district is the largest urban professional sports campus in the U.S. and the only one with a stadium, team headquarters, team store and practice facility all within the same footprint. It serves as the heartbeat of St. Louis by creating a 24/7/365 fan and community experience that encourages visitors and development to Downtown St. Louis.
In addition to the Soccer Park and Cardinal baseball, the Moon Brothers Lofts is within walking distance of the Battlehawks XFL team. The Battlehawks are an exciting game to watch and have incredible fans.

Schools
Each neighborhood in the city is serviced by one or more traditional public schools covering Kindergarten to 12th grade, operated by the St. Louis Public Schools (SLPS) district, supported by local, state and national tax dollars. Your child is assigned a school based on your address. Like all public schools, these are tuition-free and follow curriculum and evaluation guidelines established by the state of Missouri. The schools assigned to 721 17th Street are Jefferson Elementary, Yeatman-Liddell Middle School and Vashon High School.
There 27 magnet schools within the district . They are also tuition free with a couple key differences:
- Magnet schools don’t have boundaries, and can attract students from
any neighborhood in the city (hence the name). This generally results in
a more diverse mix of social, economic, ethnic, and racial backgrounds. - Each magnet offers something different than a traditional public
school, be it emphasis on certain subjects, a particular educational
approach, or theme. - Some magnets require students to meet certain academic, skill, behavior and/or attendance requirements.
- Advanced application is required and because of their popularity, spots are allocated by lottery.
There are 36 charter schools in St Louis which are also tuition-free schools but not a part of the SLPS. To learn more about charter schools go to: Charter School 101: The Basics.
This guide from SLPS is also helpful in making the all important decision of schools and neighborhoods.
