What the houses are like in Shaw
A historic district of brick singles and two-families laid out beside the Missouri Botanical Garden, with stone detailing, slate-era roof lines and generous front porches. Much of the neighborhood has been carefully restored, which raises the bar on finish work.
Restoration-minded blocks where the expectation is that repairs match what is already there rather than replace it.
