The past few weeks have brought big news and wins for Tower Grove Park.
At a ribbon cutting on July 16, St. Louis leaders convened in the park to share news of improvements including a new event support building, the restoration of four pavilions, a croquet court, and a beer garden in partnership with Rockwell Beer Co. Work on the projects is currently underway, with plans to begin debuting the finished projects this fall.

The event also marked the next milestone for the Tower Grove Connector, a 1.8-mile protected cycle track that will connect Tower Grove Park with the Cortex Innovation Community. Phase one of the project, which begins in the park, is now wrapped. In phase two, improvements will be made along Sarah Street between Vandeventer Avenue to Forest Park Parkway.
“High-quality public spaces help attract and retain talent, support nearby businesses, and make our region a more competitive place to live, work, and invest,” said Sarah Arnosky Ko of Greater St. Louis, Inc.
