A truly special South City offering at the corner of S. Jefferson Ave and Potomac Street, this three-story building is rich with history, character, and possibility. Originally home to the J. H. Waldeck Vienna Bakery & Confectionery in the early 1900s—with the family living above the shop—this corner once served as a warm neighborhood gathering place before later becoming a longtime local tavern known as Sportsman’s Sisters. Today, the building has been fully gutted, tuckpointed, and broom-swept clean, providing a solid, open canvas ready for its next chapter. The former layout featured a commercial first floor with residential space on the second and third levels, ideal for retail, bar, restaurant, mixed-use, or short-term rental/Airbnb concepts. A newer roof adds peace of mind, while the building’s history remains proudly visible through the original, faded “Sportsman’s Sisters” ghost sign still painted along the side—an irreplaceable piece of classic St. Louis lore. From bakery to tavern to whatever comes next, this is a rare opportunity to own and reimagine a building that has served its neighborhood for generations.
