Gravois Park, St. Louis

Gravois Park is a historic[2] neighborhood of St. Louis, Missouri. Roughly bounded by Jefferson Avenue, Chippewa Street, Grand Boulevard, and Cherokee Street, the Gravois Park neighborhood is a diverse mix of homeowners, renters, and businesses. The area's architecture reflects its settlement at the turn of the 20th century. The namesake park dates from 1812 (a grant made by the US government[3]), and was praised for its beauty in the nineteenth century already,[4] and in 1914 was part of a walking tour of the city meant to show off the City Plan Commission's "idealized view of the shape of the city."[5]
