Washington University owns a number of multifamily structures in our neighborhood.
The buildings they own along Pershing have or are being renovated. At two of the buildings in 61xx Pershing, fire escapes have been removed. Cheryl Adelstein of the university said that these fire escapes were a safety hazard. Break-ins from the rear had taken place and they were inappropriate sites for partying or use as decks.
When possible, additional off-street parking has been added.
The large apartment building on Skinker at McPherson is also under renovation.
The number of units will increase from 50 to 65.
According to Edelstein, these are all “small, high finish units” and will be occupied by law, other professional and graduate students as well as faculty and staff and members of the community if space is available.
The university feels that there is enough space on the parking lot to the immediate north to accommodate building residents.
From past experience, the majority have not had cars. Interested potential renters may contact:
