Historic Manchester Trail

The only westward route from St. Louis without crossing a major river

A Legacy of Commerce

In the late 1800s, the Manchester Trail represented something remarkable: the only westward route from St. Louis that didn't require crossing the Meramec, Mississippi, or Missouri Rivers.

This strategic advantage made the trailβ€”and later Manchester Roadβ€”the preferred route for commerce and settlement. As Brentwood Boulevard developed along this corridor, it naturally became a center for retail, dining, and services.

The historic settlement of Maddenville flourished here in the 1920s, establishing patterns of development that continue today.
