Something special is happening on West Monroe. The Collective has opened its doors at 121 West Monroe Avenue, right in the heart of Kirkwood. More than a headquarters, the Collective Home Center is a place where neighbors, clients, and friends can connect. A destination where real estate feels approachable, conversations feel personal, and everything for home comes together—sales, mortgage, title, insurance, and more.
Right next door at 115 West Monroe, history is being restored. The Bopp House, built in 1867 and one of Kirkwood’s earliest residences, is undergoing a thoughtful renovation. What was once hidden under vinyl siding has been revealed as timeless red brick, still strong after more than 150 years.
This restoration is about more than bricks and mortar. It’s about honoring Kirkwood’s past while preparing it for the future. It’s a chance to preserve local history while creating modern space for new businesses. The Bopp House will offer commercial space for lease, just two blocks from downtown, with dedicated parking and signage opportunities. Read more about it here.
The Collective is led by Sarah Tadlock and John Brueggemann, two St. Louis real estate leaders with deep roots in the community. Backed by a team of experienced professionals and powered by PLACE, The Collective has guided thousands of clients through buying, selling, and investing with confidence.
Sarah and John are known for their dedication and vision. They guide The Collective with a clear commitment to Kirkwood’s future. By investing in both the Bopp House and the Collective Home Center, they’re building spaces that bring people together while leaving a lasting mark on the community they call home.
We’d love for you to stop by, say hello, and see what we’re building. From preserving a landmark to creating a new destination, this is more than an office. It’s a legacy for Kirkwood—today and for generations to come.
