Richardson Place Apartments was named the 2010 St. Louis Property Association property of the year. The complex was built in 1986 and management takes great pains to keep things looking up to date. The location is near shopping and dining and Interstate 55 (just 20 minutes to downtown St. Louis.) The 162 garden units are mostly two-bedrooms and have washer/dryer hookups and roomy eat-in kitchens with stainless-steel appliances. The complex entrance is just behind Dairy Queen on Richardson Road. Amenities include an outdoor pool, BBQ and picnic area, playground and 24-hour emergency maintenance. The property is owned and managed by Village Green, a large national management company.
