Neighborhood Appearance

      Means getting DT2 into top physical shape.  Capitalizing on our best assets, such as historic buildings and pedestrian-oriented streets, is just part of the story. An inviting atmosphere, created through attractive window displays, parking areas, building improvements, street furniture, signs, sidewalks, street lights, and landscaping, conveys a positive visual message about the commercial district and what it has to offer.

      Design activities also include instilling good maintenance practices in the commercial district, enhancing the physical appearance of the commercial district by rehabilitating historic buildings, encouraging appropriate new construction, developing sensitive design management systems, and long-term planning.  Major projects: Streetscapes and Storefronts.

      Sue Luepker and Marcia Ellerbeck are the Leaders of this team and you may contact them here or call Marcia at 314.633.6155. Meetings are held at 4 PM, on the First Tuesday of each month at the Feasting Fox.
