Good Tidings!
The holiday season is a time for reflection on the past year, and anticipation for the next. The Park Plaza Tower's transformation into The Private Residences progressed on target during 2008, and we will soon celebrate the first holiday season with our new neighbors on the ninth and tenth floors. We look forward to adding to the community throughout 2009, with more families arriving in January on floor eleven. It's gratifying to see more and more people begin to live the vision we set out to create with The Private Residences—a finer standard of urban living with all of the conveniences of a neighborhood.
Please join us in a toast to new beginnings, old friends and a shared hope for making new holiday memories as part of The Chase family.
Santé and Happy Holidays!

Beyond lights and decorations, the Central West End offers plenty of options to put you and yours in a festive, holiday mood. Make your list and check it twice to include:
Holiday on the Plaza
The fourth annual event kicked off the holiday season, Dec. 6. Guests enjoyed a holiday performance by the world class choral group, Ambassadors of Harmony. Afterwards, everyone gathered for the magical lighting of the Maryland Plaza Christmas tree.
Breakfast with Santa
You're invited to join Santa at the St. Louis Zoo for his morning meal. Share your wish list face-to-face and get a picture with the man in red. Santa is scheduled for four breakfasts: Dec. 13, 14, 20 and 21.
Poinsettia Show
The Jewel Box in Forest Park sparkles the brightest during December. For the month, the giant greenhouse is filled with red, pink and white poinsettias. Visitors are welcome to take in the display Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.; 9 a.m. to 11 a.m. on Saturdays; and from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Sundays. Admission is one dollar, but you can get in free on Mondays and Tuesdays before noon.
Wild Lights
The Saint Louis Zoo turns into a holiday safari for the season. Nearly half a million holiday light bulbs are used to provide the glow for an evening stroll around the zoo. The event is open from 5:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m., Dec. 19-23, 26-30.
