Tower Grove Community Development Corporation has historicly serviced the neighborhoods of Tower Grove South, Southwest Garden and Shaw. With improvements to the area over 40 years and limited opportunities to continue work to develop vacant buildings/eliminate nuisance properties, along with signifigant growth in revenue producing services provided to the entire City of Saint Louis and beyond, Tower Grove Community Development Corporation has increased it’s service area to the fifteen counties of the St. Louis Metropolitan region. We will continue to support our historic service area’s growth as a real estate-related community development corporation by promoting responsible development, developing market rate/affordable housing and addressing vacant and abandoned property.

In addition to development, tenant screening, landlord training and work on energy efficiency, TGCDC participates in steering committees and advises and facilitates infrastructure improvements including the Tower Grove Connector. TGCDC advises neighborhoods associations, developers and CIDs/SBDs on best practices to address vacancy, nuisance statute lawsuits, development, and development incentives such as Tax Abatement and Missouri and Federal Historic Preservation tax credits and other programs. We work with community organizations, elected Alderpersons, local government to assist with neighborhood stabilization and economic development.
