Below is a sampling of WashU projects and activities of note around the Danforth Campus.

Concordia Seminary & Washington University Redevelopment Proposal

In May 2024, Washington University and Concordia Seminary hosted neighborhood level meetings to discuss the proposed draft overlay district regulations for the athletic use relocation, known as the Big Bend Overlay project. Residents had an opportunity to provide feedback on the proposed regulations. Discussions will continue in the coming months, as the City of Clayton integrates neighbor comments into the draft overlay district regulations.

Mobility Safety Improvements at Skinker Boulevard and Forest Park Parkway

Working in partnership with the City of St. Louis’s Board of Public Service, Washington University has invested in the following mobility safety improvements to the Skinker Boulevard and Forest Park Parkway intersection:

  • Improvements to ADA accessibility at the corners of the intersection
  • Adjustments in signal operations to reduce conflicts and allow more time for pedestrians to cross
  • New pedestrian ADA compliant cross walk buttons and audio signals
  • Modifications to make crosswalks highly visible
  • Separate crosswalks for bicycles and pedestrians similar to the approach implemented at the Skinker and Lindell and Skinker and Forsyth intersections. 
  • Installation of stainless steel bollards at the corners to enhance awareness for drivers and pedestrians.
