The Cherokee Street Community Improvement District (CID) was established in 2017 to advance the economic, social, and cultural interests of the Cherokee Street community, between Gravois and Indiana Avenues. The organization works to achieve this mission by supporting a diverse, independent business community, creating beautiful, safe, and active public spaces, and fostering a culture of creativity and empowerment in and around Cherokee Street.

Cherokee neighborhood residents, business owners, and committed Cherokee Street supporters are all welcome and encouraged to participate. The CID meets on the third Thursday of January, April, July, and October to update the community about CID investments, gather feedback from businesses and residents, and share information about upcoming events and opportunities.
