This Saturday!

Dutchtown South Community Corporation is conducting sidewalk audits to advocate for walkability in the Gravois Park neighborhood and needs your help! Please join us and the Southside Strutters on Saturday, August 17th at 11am to perform the audits together. This survey will be assessing the accessibility of sidewalks along Potomac Street including questions around appearance, safety, and the overall quality of the walk.

Call or DM us to see the unit. We use home screen (credit check, leasing history, & background check) and we’re happy to work with anyone interested. Will also need proof of income 3x monthly rent. All forms of assistance welcome. No pets.

Today our thoughts are with Mike Brown Jr's family. We thank those who stayed and protested for a better world for 400 days and all that have kept the fight going these 10 years. We also remember those who have been the victims of police violence in South East St. Louis. DSCC will continue to work for a safe neighborhood for us all.
