Resident leaving town for fellowship, selling condo! This building is one of the most desirable in the Central West End. It’s also approximately 1 mile from Barnes-Jewish Hospital/Wash U medical school — which you can access by a short drive, a bike ride through Forest Park, or on the Gold Wash U shuttle (run by MetroLink), which stops less than a block from the front entrance of this building. We’ve really enjoyed living here for the past 3 years! Here’s the official blurb:

Sunny, 2BR/2BA, 6th floor, corner unit condo with tree-top views of Forest Park and the Central West End, completely updated 3 years ago by Metropolis. Granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, deep-toned hardwood floors, combination washer/dryer in unit plus free full size washer/dryer on each floor, cable TV included, assigned/gated parking, elevator building with security camera system. This professionally managed building has the exterior charm of the historic area and the interior security and convenience of modern day. With the Metrolink stop, Forest Park, Wash U. Medical Center/Barnes Jewish Hospital System, Wash. U. shuttle stops blocks away and the Central West End restaurants, shopping and entertainment so close, this location can’t be beat. TAX ABATED.

Directions: Lindell Blvd, north on Union, west on Pershing. Building is on left.

Apt for rent: close to hospital (10 min), but not so close that you can see it. Quiet neighborhood but walking distance to Maplewood restaurants (including Monarch), grocery stores, and a good mechanic!

Dear House-Staff:

Congratulations on matching at Barnes-Jewish Hospital. I graduated from the internal medicine program in 2007, and have moved out to California.  For those of you looking to make living arrangements, have a look at my 2 bed 2 bath condominium, which is up for sale. It is conveniently located in the Central West End, a 5 minute commute to BJC, and steps from Forest Park and the Metrolink (direct shot to BJC and Lambert Airport). It is very quiet, and safe street. I owned it for over 3 years and it has served me very well. I can guarantee that you will be happy with the tax break you get with ownership.

Don’t pass up the opportunity to see the condo. Call or e-mail me to schedule a viewing.

Thanks,

Arsen

She kept us waiting, but she came!

Alyce Jean Wilker arrived May 12 at 3:18 am. She trumped her brother on both sets of stats with a weight of 8 lb 9 oz and a length of 22 inches. She is alert, strong and eating well. Arlo is great and being a super sweet big brother. I am doing well too. We are home already and happy. We’ll put pictures up on the website soon.

Caroline, Peter, Arlo and Alyce
