University City sits right on the St. Louis city line, and a lot of its moves happen in older buildings. Walk-up apartments and courtyard buildings line the streets around the Delmar Loop and Parkview Gardens, brick two-family flats and bungalows fill the neighborhoods north and south of Delmar, and the historic homes of University Heights have tall staircases and narrow doorways built long before today's furniture. With Washington University next door, leases turn over in waves every spring and summer.
