The abundance of historic red brick 19th century and early 20th century structures noted in Benton Park are also found in Benton Park West. Although there are no city parks within the Benton Park West Neighborhood, the residents and their neighborhood association share the amenities of Benton Park with their neighbors on the east side of Jefferson Street. An active Benton Park West Neighborhood Association sponsors a number of events throughout the year for residents of the area and partners with the Benton Park Neighborhood Association on some of the events in Benton Park as well. The stretch of Cherokee Street from Jefferson to Gravois has seen a revival in the past few years with active groups of young artists, new cafes, art galleries, an urban garden, and a collection of Latin American restaurants and food shops. With its concentration of Mexican American establishments, Cherokee Street is the place to celebrate Cinco de Mayo in the spring and Latin Week in the fall. Benton Park and its surrounding neighborhoods serve as an example of some of the best in St. Louis urban redevelopment. Neighbors committed to diversity, dedicated to historic restoration, and devoted to building community are making the revival of this urban area a success story.

As the logo for Benton Park West indicates, we are a neighborhood that Treasures the Past and Embraces the Future. We also believe in diversity as shown by our quote for 2011 – diverse Backgrounds, unique Paths, one Win - People of BPW “By the mid-1860s, the St. Louis neighborhood of Benton Park West was already a community that could provide for the basic needs of its residents. There were carpenters, builders, stone masons, dairymen, gardeners, market owners, grocers, saddle and harness makers, a blacksmith, a midwife, and two saloons to serve the area of about 50 city blocks. Benton Park West was considered a working-class neighborhood and a German community. While most of the residents were working class, many owned their own businesses. There were also come very prominent

12 Benton Park Community Directory 2012 residents. Many of the beautiful homes the working-class immigrants built remain in their architectural grandeur today.”* (*Re-published with the permission of Edna Campos Gravenhorst, author of Images of America: Benton Park West). Benton Park West is the neighborhood west of Benton Park, bounded on the east by South Jefferson Avenue, roughly on the south by Cherokee Street and by Gravois Boulevard on the Northwest. There is a three-block area from Compton to Potomac then to Gravois that is also a part of Benton Park West. Many of the homes on the north side of Potomac face Gravois Park. While Benton Park West does not have a “Park” of its own, there are two city parks which border the neighborhood. These two parks are Benton Park and Gravois Park. The Benton Park West Neighborhood Association, a nonprofit 501(c)3 organization, was established in the 1970s as a neighborhood “improvement” organization. This focus has remained the same in supporting residents and businesses in the neighborhood. The mission is to “Enhance and strengthen the neighborhood and its residents by promoting beautification,
