The overhaul of several public transit stops in Greater St. Louis — partially funded by AARP — has helped leverage millions of additional investment dollars in everything from new and renovated buildings to sidewalks and landscaping.
As part of its Livable Communities initiative, AARP Missouri is helping to update a Metro Link light rail stations in the region—adding seasonal plantings, shade canopies and other improvements. Additional livability projects include an exercise park and a push for expanded high-speed internet.
The popular Ten Toe Express program, which combines walking, sightseeing and learning to use public transit in the St. Louis area, is returning in April.
