Those of you who have been following our efforts to preserve our beloved mid-century high-rise San Luis Apartments know that the outcome wasn't a good one.   What used to be a sleek, retro apartment tower at the corner of Lindell & Taylor in the CWE has since been replaced with a drab surface parking lot. 

But all was not lost.  A impassioned group of city residents went to court to make sure that concerned citizens will have a voice in future preservation matters that violate city ordinances and historic district guidelines.  The final verdict is still out, but thanks to the dedication of our brilliant attorneys, we are hopeful that the laws will be clarified so public process is respected in the future. 

All proceeds go directly to our hard-working legal team and the St. Louis Building Arts Foundation, which is hosting the event.
