What the houses are like in Tower Grove South
Dense blocks of brick two-family flats and the ornamented single-family houses locals call gingerbread homes, most of them built between the 1890s and the 1920s. Wood windows, plaster walls, and original trim are still common, and a lot of houses have had one or two partial rehabs layered on top of the original construction.
This is home base. Chris lives here, so jobs in Tower Grove South are a short drive rather than a trip across town.
