PRESERVATION BOARD - September 28, 2026

The City of St. Louis Preservation Board met on September 28, 2026. No public purchasing, contract awards, or other government procurement activity was identified. The Board approved the August 24 meeting minutes and, without objection, commended Don Row on his service and retirement. It denied preliminary approval for the revised project at 1409–111 Dolman Street, directing the applicant to return with a design addressing the building’s setback and other cited deviations. In the Tower Grove East Historic District, the Board granted an appeal for a carport at 2922 Pennsylvania Avenue, allowing the setback based on the narrow alley and utility-pole locations (six votes in favor). The outcome of the separate Soulard Historic District carport appeal is not clear in the transcript.

The Board also considered appeals to install aluminum windows at 4515 and 4525 Lindell Boulevard. The applicant cited durability and an estimated $25,000 cost difference compared with aluminum-clad windows; neighborhood representatives supported the proposals. The Board overturned the director’s denial for 4515 Lindell. A matching motion was made for 4525, but the transcript does not clearly capture its vote or final outcome. These were preservation and construction-design decisions, not procurement actions.
