Arlington Grove Mixed Use Residential Redevelopment - City of St. Louis, MO
Arlington Grove located in the City of St. Louis is a proposed 112-unit mixed-income residential redevelopment that GDS was commissioned to provide landscape and irrigation design for.
The project consisted of landscape development for 91 newly constructed garden apartments and townhouses and 21 semi-detached units that will be created through the rehabilitation of the historic Arlington Elementary School. Arlington Grove will also bring a new aesthetic to the neighborhood and serve as a model for the development of green mixed-income communities.
