Congratulations
Families residing in five St. Louis Housing Authority public housing developments will soon enjoy revitalized living spaces, thanks to a $238,690 award from the City of St. Louis Community Development Administration’s (CDA) 2024 Neighborhood Transformation grant.
The funding will be used to support resident-directed projects aimed at improving neighborhood aesthetics and increasing resident engagement at Parkview, Euclid, West Pine, Northside Scattered Sites, and Renaissance at Grand apartment communities. The future holds exciting possibilities, from new landscapes and signage to gardens to dynamic murals, all of which will improve the physical and social conditions of each community.
Latasha Barnes, Interim Executive Director of SLHA, highlighted the positive impact of resident involvement in neighborhood beautification, stating, "Research shows that resident involvement is positively linked to a sense of community. We are pleased that the Community Development Administration chose to invest in SLHA's families and developments." She added, "This beautification program will boost resident pride and ownership of their living environments and nurture leadership skills that foster more inclusive communities."
To support these efforts, SLHA is seeking to hire a Program Coordinator and an intern. They will work closely with the Tenant Advisory Boards (TABs) and residents in achieving their long-term vision for their communities. Key responsibilities include organizing resident outreach and engagement, managing volunteers, coordinating service learning opportunities, and soliciting community support. Interested applicants should visit slha.org/careers for the complete job descriptions and to apply.

SLHA is thrilled to announce that it has been awarded $1,666,279 in funding through the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2024. This funding will support SLHA’s ongoing efforts to redevelop the historic Clinton-Peabody Apartments.
The Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2024 provides direct investments for homeless prevention, public health, economic revitalization projects, and other priorities, across St. Louis.
“Redeveloping the Clinton-Peabody Apartments is a priority for the St. Louis Housing Authority that requires significant investments,” said Interim Executive Director Latasha Barnes. “We are incredibly grateful to Congresswomen Cori Bush for her advocacy on behalf of SLHA families residing in the Clinton-Peabody community. This funding will enable us to continue our work in redeveloping the community to better serve the needs of current and future residents.”
Located on approximately 24 acres in the historic Peabody-Darst-Webbe neighborhood, Clinton-Peabody is the oldest public housing development within the SLHA portfolio. The property, consisting of 358 units in 31 buildings, has served as an affordable housing solution for extremely low-income families since 1942. The reimagined development will consist of a mixed income and mixed-use development that meets the needs of modern families.
