🏈 Game Day Ready! 🏆

Our SLHA team brought the team spirit to our latest all-staff meeting! Staff came together for a day of updates, collaboration, and conversation as we reflected on our progress and looked ahead to what’s next.

It was a great opportunity to connect with colleagues across departments, recognize the work being done throughout the agency, and continue building stronger relationships as one team.

Cochran Gardens take

Cochran Gardens takes shape. 🏗️

This week’s Throwback Thursday takes us to 1952, with an aerial view of Cochran Gardens during construction. The photograph captures a moment when new homes and a new chapter of public housing were taking shape in St. Louis.

Looking back at these images helps us trace the history of housing in our city and the communities that became part of its story.
