This gleaming landmark building was rehabbed around 2001--about 20 years ago. It is purely residential (no AirBB) and there are strict but sensible regulations about noise, smoking, trash, and so on. The building has 11 floors with dwelling units, 9 on each floor, so 99 residential condos in the building. There is a strong sense of "neighborhood" --residents have regular pot-luck gatherings on the rooftop deck during decent weather and gather in the community room for Sunday potluck during the winter months. --Unlike several downtown condo associations, Terra Cotta is well managed, has a substantial reserve account, and has healthy cash flow which enables it to keep mechanical systems functioning well. The building does not allow AirBnB units. Building security and personal security is a major priority. --Terra Cotta does not have a swimming pool or a workout room. One of the latest apartment complexes with flashy amenities is just down the street. Their largest unit is 1330 sq ft of living space with monthly rent over $3000. You can live in our Terra Cotta unit, purchase a membership in the the 21C athletic club across the street, and in the process have not only 400 more square feet (a good sized bedroom more) but also save $1000/month in the process. Metrolink is a 10 minute walk (Convention Center /Civic Center/Union Station). The Washington Avenue restaurant area begins only a block away. Schnucks Downtown is about 10 minutes on foot. We are an easy walk to the Blues games or to the soccer stadium. The new 21c Hotel with art gallery, coffee shop, bar, restaurant, and athletic center is 50 yards away, right across the street. --Terra Cotta residents for over seven years, we are moving because of husband's work situation.
