Thoughts on a recent traffic study on Hampton Avenue. Will study lead to action?
Christy Park
Christy Park, according to the city website, is comprised of 16.1 acres of park land, established in 1910. There are no official boundaries listed on that website, so I can only assume that Christy Park and Joseph Leisure Parks are one in the same. There is actually a band of parks that start at Kingshighway and Christy and head south and east toward the River Des Peres, following the Great Rivers Greenway Trail starting near Christy and Holly Hills Boulevards.

Princeton Heights Neighborhood
Princeton Heights is a tidy south city neighborhood that benefits from being near the Macklind Avenue district and the convenience of South City shopping, parks and services. If you like the St. Louis gingerbread, bungalows and Dutch colonial homes, this is one of the spots to find them. This neighborhood tour was originally published in December, 2009 with updates from September, 2019.
