ST. LOUIS — The St. Louis Council of the Boy Scouts of America plans to sell its current Central West End property and search for a new headquarters.
The Boy Scouts’ Greater St. Louis Area Council owns its longtime home at 4568 W. Pine Blvd., which it has occupied since the 1960s, and will search for a new headquarters building to buy that would total around 25,000 square feet, said CEO Joe Sadewasser.
The organization didn't give an asking price for its current property, which the city appraises at $759,000.
The new building could be in either the city of St. Louis or St. Louis County, but should be a central location near major roads since the council has groups across the region, in Missouri and Illinois, Sadewasser said. It serves about 25,000 Scouts, making it one of the five largest local Boy Scouts organizations in the country.
