The St. Louis Housing Authority (SLHA) has been awarded over $1.6 million in funding through the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2024. It will support SLHA’s redevelopment of the historic Clinton-Peabody Apartments.
The CAA provides direct investments for homeless prevention, public health, economic revitalization projects, and other priorities, across St. Louis.
“Redeveloping the Clinton-Peabody Apartments is a priority for the St. Louis Housing Authority that requires significant investments,” said Interim Executive Director Latasha Barnes.
“This funding will enable us to continue our work in redeveloping the outdated community to better serve the needs of current and future residents.”
Located on approximately 24 acres in the historic Peabody-Darst-Webbe neighborhood, Clinton-Peabody is the oldest public housing development within the SLHA portfolio.
The property, consisting of 358 units in 31 buildings, has served as an affordable housing solution for extremely low-income families since 1942. The future development will consist of a mixed income and mixed-use development that meets the needs of modern families.
