Co-Creating a New Clinton Peabody

A long-awaited transformation is on the horizon for the Near Southside. The St. Louis Housing Authority (SLHA) has contracted with Preservation of Affordable Housing, Inc. (POAH) as the master developer of the historic Clinton-Peabody Apartments, bringing approximately $100 million in investment to the community.

Built in 1942 and situated on approximately 24 acres in the historic Peabody-Darst-Webbe neighborhood, Clinton-Peabody is the oldest public housing development in St. Louis. This community-led effort aims to build a mixed income and mixed-use development that meets the needs of modern families. Through an intentional community-centric approach, POAH guarantees the master plan will reflect the community’s vision and honor past, current, and future residents.

Our vision is to create a safe, supportive, and joyful community that promotes personal growth and belonging. We provide spaces for people of all ages and backgrounds to come together and thrive. We empower individuals and promote educational resources, wellness, and recreation with the ultimate goal of creating a community where everyone flourishes and feels at home.
