Suburban Neighborhood in Saint Louis, Missouri
St. Louis City 63107, 63147
Because Hyde Park started as a small town called Bremen, the neighborhood maintains an interconnected feel that dates back to the mid-1800s. Though the fluctuation in Hyde Park’s population after World War II left behind many vacant homes throughout the community, groups like the St. Louis Vacancy Collaborative are working to renovate buildings and allow the historical houses to offer a glimpse into the past while moving the neighborhood to the future.
Only blocks from the Mississippi River, Hyde Park comprises Victorian-style architecture and Second Empire-style row houses. While shrubbery and well-maintained grass line the sidewalks near occupied homes, windows and doors covered with plywood remain a familiar sight—an aspect of the community that residents intend to change. “We went out in the neighborhood and engaged our residents to see what we could do to facilitate preserving the character of the neighborhood,” explains Fatimah Muhammad, founder of the Hyde Park Neighborhood Association. “We developed a committee that specifically focuses on nuisance and vacant properties.” While houses needing restoration begin around $20,000, turnkey homes can cost up to $380,000.
Salisbury Street connects residents right to Interstate 70, making it easy to travel throughout the city and beyond its limits. Public transportation also serves the community, with the 74 bus linking the neighborhood to downtown and St. Louis Lambert International Airport. To cross the river and reach Touchette Regional Hospital, locals can use the 8 bus to connect to the train station that runs both east and west of the Gateway Arch.
For elementary school, students in the neighborhood begin at Bryan Hill Elementary, a school within St. Louis Public Schools that earns a D-plus grade from Niche and boasts an Educator of the Year awardee as the principal. From here, students transition to Yeatman-Liddell Middle School and Vashon High School, both D-plus-graded schools. For nearby private school options, Most Holy Trinity School and Academy sits just a block from the community’s namesake park and serves students from kindergarten through eighth grade.
While there are a few takeout options along Salisbury Street, like Freddie G’s Chicken and Waffles, dine-in restaurants are found deeper in the heart of downtown. Spots like El Burro Loco and Broadway Oyster Bar are about 3 miles away, easily reachable by bus or car. For groceries, Aldi sits about a mile west of Hyde Park, but Piekutowski’s Distributors sells artisan sausages right in the neighborhood. Bulk stores like Sam’s Club and Walmart can be reached within 10 miles, and national retailers can be reached via the Blue Line at St. Louis Galleria.
With Hyde Park’s nearly 12-acre green space at the heart of the neighborhood, residents can easily walk to a playground, lake, horseshoe courts and a pavilion. A central hub in the community, the park also hosts events for neighbors, including the Hyde Park Neighborhood Association’s summer socials. When locals seek a larger-scale adventure, Fairground Park is less than 2 miles away and consists of over 130 acres of recreational opportunities, its bike trails, swimming pool and skating rink a few of the attractions offered within its borders. During the winter months, the YMCA in O’Fallon Park provides yet another option for activities, its fitness center and indoor pool housed within yet another green space within a 2-mile radius of the neighborhood.
Be Well Café and Farmers Market Bazaar is a small business within the community that hosts Food on the Move, an event intended to bring healthy food to those in the area with limited access to fresh produce and essentials. Clay Elementary School also keeps health in mind with evening fitness courses offered throughout the week, only two blocks from the neighborhood park.
