KETC | Living St. Louis | Hyde Park

From KETC, LIVING ST. LOUIS Producer Anne-Marie Berger profiles the Hyde Park community as part of a special episode highlighting the distinct neighborhoods in St. Louis. Located just north of downtown, Hyde Park was formerly called Bremen before it became part of the City of St. Louis in 1856. Over the years, it has experienced a great decline in population. Many of the homes in the area date back to the 19th century and are in need of great repairs. Peter George of Blue Shutters Development is working hard to rehab these old buildings in an effort to revive the neighborhood.

Hyde park Is crazy now

[zkaps52]

It wasnt ww2 soldiers returning wanting new houses that killed hyde park it was white flight. Black people moved in and becouse of racism white people just left many just abanded there homes. Also hyde park is a rough place they really didnt touch on that the other main reason for hyde park's condition is Violent CRIME. Gentrification is yet to make the place safe and if they are successful the place will no longer be affordable. hyde park now is affordable I lived in hyde park for years
