Though Brentwood was officially established in 1919, it had been a thriving suburban town for much longer, serving as a way-station for mail coaches and pioneers heading west. Brentwood today still retains much of this “crossroads” feel, a hub of main roads and highways featuring a number of shopping malls and businesses.

Most of Brentwood is easily accessible from highways 64/40 and 170, making it easy to travel to the airport, downtown, out of the city, and everywhere in between. It is minutes from downtown Clayton and the strip in Maplewood.

An art galleria, a performing arts center, and a ballroom all call Brentwood home as well. Still, being next to two highways, all of the city’s entertainment is easily within reach.
