The Bogen Lofts | The Crown Jewel of the St. Louis Loft District

Built in 1901 by the renowned architectural firm Eames & Young, The Bogen first housed the Lesser-Goldman Cotton Company and later Ferguson-McKinney, a prominent dry goods wholesaler, anchoring the Washington Avenue Garment District into the late 1930s. Generations of St. Louisans later knew it as home to the sprawling, always-busy Amatin’s Book Store and Gus’s Fashion and Shoes. Thanks to Missouri’s historic tax credits, the building was reborn as residential lofts in the late 1990s, and today it stands proudly at Washington Avenue and Tucker.

This premium 1-bedroom, 2-bath loft offers 1,262 square feet where that century-old industrial soul meets modern polish. Soaring ceilings, exposed brick, original timber beams and columns, exposed ductwork, and oversized warehouse windows fill the open layout with light and character.

The finishes are thoroughly contemporary. The kitchen pairs granite countertops with stainless steel appliances, built for everyday cooking and easy entertaining. Upgraded finishes run throughout, and two full baths add comfort rarely found in a one-bedroom. A separate bedroom and living area give you true loft volume with privacy, and a private north-facing balcony is your own outdoor retreat.

Head up to the rooftop for breathtaking skyline views. With a Walk Score of 98, you’re steps from Washington Avenue’s best dining, galleries, shopping, and sporting venues.

More than a century of history, finished for the way you live now. This is urban loft living at its finest.
