About Northwoods

Northwoods is a St. Louis County city that began as a village in 1939 and became a fourth-class city in 1940, when voters approved the change on April 16. The city’s compact streets sit in St. Louis County, and even the former Garfield School carried a Northwoods address while standing in Pine Lawn. Northwoods is a municipal story, built out of boundaries, elections, and neighboring places that grew together. Its name sounds wilder than its map.
