Originally the Central Shoe Company in St. Louis and constructed around 1917, the building shows strong signs of the influence of the Wainwright Building with strong tops and caps and expansive large windows.

The Ventana is a newer downtown loft development, circa 2004, that contains 91 lofts made up of 12 varying floor plans. The floor plans consist of 1 or 2 bedrooms and all of the units featuring concrete floors and ceilings, well appointed kitchens and baths, and of course huge windows!

Homeowners enjoy the rooftop amenities of this project including a pool, sun deck and clubhouse. The clubhouse features a functional kitchen, gas fireplace and glass overhead door leading to the pool, creating an indoor/outdoor space ideal for entertaining.

Residents can walk across the street to Fields Foods and many of the Washington Avenue Garment District restaurants and bars. Residents can walk a few blocks to enjoy an MLS soccer match with St. Louis City Soccer Club.  Many take the shuttle across the street from Blondie's to Cards and Blues games.  Whatever you're liking Ventana Lofts is great place to call home!
