Celebrating a Rich Legacy and Vibrant Community for Compton Heights
Compton Heights, a storied neighborhood in St. Louis, Missouri, was designed in 1888 and features gracefully curved streets and deep setbacks to create a pleasant vista and reduce traffic. Many of St. Louis' first families settled in here — corporate leaders of Anheuser-Busch, Falstaff, Magic Chef, Monsanto (Bayer) and Pet Incorporated — and a number of the homes still remain in the families some 100+ years later.
The new website showcases dozens of photographs of the neighborhood’s historic homes, thoughtful landscaping, architectural details and streetscapes. The website houses a lot of information — ticket sales for cherished annual events, a detailed history and resources for current residents — but clear navigation keeps things simple and allows visitors to quickly find what they are looking for.
