Wash Ave REFRESH! - Community Cleanup

Join your STL neighbors as we begin Phase 1 of the 'Wash Ave REFRESH!' - A Community Cleanup Day of 2-blocks (Tucker - 14th) & Lucas Park. YOU'RE INVITED! Join 'Wash Ave REFRESH!' - a coordinated, multi-phase effort to visibly improve Wash Ave through community participation, professional cleaning, landscaping, public-space investment, vacant-storefront art activation, & neighborhood relationship building. On Saturday, November 7th we'll kick off Phase 1 with an exciting Community Cleanup Day. Our focus will be a 2-block stretch of Wash Ave (Tucker Blvd thru 14th St) & Lucas Park (next to Central Library). Here's what we hope to accomplish: • Clean under & reset displaced grates to improve walkability and even sidewalk pathways for our friends & neighbors with physical disabilities; • Pick up litter and debris throughout the corridor; • Wash vacant storefront windows; • Pull weeds on Wash Ave & Lucas Park; • Address simple, visible maintenance issues that can be easily & safely corrected; • Discard broken planters; • Remove irrelevant signage from posts.
