We’re an all-volunteer group of neighbors — the Benton Park Neighborhood Association. Hi!

Home to St. Louis' second-oldest park, Benton Park earned the distinction as the largest historic district in St. Louis in 1985, and from its beginnings as a neighborhood in 1836 through to today this neighborhood has maintained a prominent place in the city's heritage. 

Settled by a French utopian community and German immigrants as early as the 1700s— Benton Park is a diverse, vibrant gem of an urban neighborhood today. And it still has that utopian and European character — walkable amenities, beautiful architecture, and (we think) some of the best neighbors in St. Louis.

Our residents are creatives, professionals, small businesses, growing families, single folks, and retirees. Our volunteer-based neighborhood association, the Benton Park Neighborhood Association (BPNA), works to sustain an informed and active neighborhood, oversee sound city planning, and responsive government — all to serve the residents and businesses of the Benton Park neighborhood better.
