PlanSTL Field Day Pop-Up and Neighborhood Planning Meeting

Overview

Description

The City is inviting community members to the Community Field Day, Pop-Up Market, and Final Public Meeting on Wednesday, September 23, bringing residents, youth, families, businesses, community organizations, and partners together to celebrate neighborhood assets and shape the area’s future. Plan Area 4 includes Wells-Goodfellow, Hamilton Heights, Kingsway West, O’Fallon, Penrose, College Hill, and Fairground. The neighborhood planning process is helping establish a long-term vision for the area while also informing the City’s ongoing recovery and rebuilding efforts following the May 16, 2025 tornado.  The Community Field Day & Pop-Up Market outside Mathews-Dickey beginning at 4:00pm event will highlight the emerging vision for a PLAY District — the Penrose Learning, Athletics and Youth District — centered on youth excellence and connecting Mathews-Dickey, City Academy, Penrose Park, the Velodrome, and the future reuse of the former Scullin School site.  The afternoon will feature Velodrome bike rides, lawn games, free food, and a pop-up vendor market, giving families an opportunity to experience the connections between these important community assets and envision how they can work together to expand opportunities for youth, recreation, health, education, and community activity. Donations of new or gently used sports equipment will also be accepted during the event and donated to Mathews-Dickey youth, helping provide additional resources and opportunities for young people in the community. The final community meeting beginning at 6:00pm in the Mathews-Dickey Gym will provide residents and partners an opportunity to review the Plan Area 4 vision, discuss priorities, and provide feedback as the neighborhood plan moves toward completion. All residents, youth, families, community organizations, businesses, and partners are welcome to attend.
