WELCOME TO BENTON PARK
Benton Park Neighborhood Association (BPNA) is a volunteer-run organization that brings neighbors together, keeps residents informed, and advocates for thoughtful city planning and responsive local government—for everyone who calls this corner of St. Louis home.
Our goal is to make Benton Park a great place to live, work, and belong.

UPCOMING EVENT
You may have noticed a few of Benton Park’s biggest, baddest (and very dead) trees came down a couple of weeks ago. Thanks to the Missouri Department of Conservation (MDC) Community Forestry Cost Share Program, $25,000 in tree work was completed in mid-January by Davey Tree.
Seven dead and dying trees were removed, and four additional trees were pruned to keep the park healthy and safe. Thanks to MDC for selecting Friends of Benton Park as a grant recipient, and to the Forestry Division of the City of St. Louis for partnering with us on this project.
As required by the grant, we’ll be planting 14 new native trees this spring to replace the seven that were removed. Join us Sunday, March 22, for a morning of tree planting and mulching.
Benton Park is one of three city parks participating in Open Space STL’s Community Stewardship Alliance program. Please pre-register via Open Space STL by clicking the Register button or here.
