The Neighborhood:
Founded in the 1830s, Soulard is St. Louis’ oldest residential district and still feels like a compact French village—red-brick row houses, iron balconies, and gas-lamp streets. Within a 5-minute walk you’ll find more than a dozen locally loved pubs (try McGurk’s for live Irish music), farm-to-table restaurants, and the Soulard Farmers Market, operating since 1779. Anheuser-Busch Brewery sits eight blocks south; take the free Clydesdale tour or enjoy a biergarten flight. On Saturday mornings Tower Grove Park’s expansive trails and Whitaker Music Festival are a quick drive or scooter ride away. Expect a lively atmosphere on weekends, especially during baseball season and the February Mardi Gras parade—the second largest in the U.S.
Getting Around:
On Foot: Walk Score 88—most guests never move their car once parked.
Scooters & Bikes: Lime and Bird scooters plus STL Bike Share hubs line 7th & 9th Streets.
Transit: The #30 Arsenal bus (stop two blocks away) reaches downtown in 12 min and connects to the Metrolink light-rail at Civic Center.
Rideshare: Uber/Lyft average $8–$12 to Busch Stadium, $18 to the Arch.
By Car: Quick access to I-55 and I-44; airport in ±20 min. A dedicated parking pad behind the house is yours, with ample free street parking if you travel with two vehicles.
Other Things to Note:
Stairs: Bedrooms are on the second floor—no elevator.
Quiet Hours: 10 PM–8 AM, monitored by a calibrated Minut decibel sensor (no cameras inside).
Pets: Dogs ≤ 60 lb welcome with $30 fee; please crate when unattended and use the provided waste bags for the fenced yard.
Security: Exterior Ring camera faces the alley for package and parking pad safety.
Climate: Central HVAC plus tower fans; portable heaters or fans available on request.
Trash & Recycling: City pickup Tuesday morning—bins are in the alley; cleaners roll them out, but you may see trucks early.
Seasonal Events: Mardi Gras (late Feb) brings street closures and live music steps away—great energy but higher ambient noise.
