St. Louis on the Rise

For decades, St. Louis City has experienced population decline while surrounding suburban area populations climb. As a result, many neighborhoods in St. Louis, particularly downtown, struggle to retain vibrant and economically successful businesses. However, there is cohort of passionate professionals working to push St. Louis to a new level of economic development. This week, we will learn about the different efforts to revitalize and grow the economy of St. Louis and how residents across the region will benefit from these efforts.

Open to WashU students, staff and faculty.

This event is part of Community Engagement Week, a campus-wide celebration of our collective impact. To learn more about the series vist https://confluence.washu.edu/community-engagement-week/.
