Neighborhood Revitalization Strategy Areas
Through the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), the City of St. Louis designates areas experiencing economic distress, vacancy, poverty, or disinvestment for special revitalization focus using Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds.
Overview
The City of St. Louis Neighborhood Revitalization Strategy Area (NRSA) identifies neighborhoods where Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) resources can be strategically targeted to support community revitalization.
Use the interactive map below to determine whether a property, project site, or proposed activity is located within the NRSA boundary. This can be helpful for organizations applying for CDA funding, as projects located within the NRSA may qualify for additional consideration or flexibility under certain CDBG-funded programs.
The City of St. Louis' NRSAs were approved by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) in March 2026 as part of CDA’s submission of the City of St. Louis' 2025–2029 Consolidated Plan.
