The feature story in the most recent issue of Town & Style details our 90-year history in St. Louis and the values that have kept our company going strong for nearly a century.
Current president Stafford Manion reflects on why bigger isn’t always better:
“For every client, we’re all hands on deck. They can always reach an agent, our vice president, Lori, or even myself. You can’t get that level of service from an office with hundreds of agents.”
Check out the second slide for the full feature story, or head to our Linktree for the link to the e-edition of this Town & Style!
The remaining slides give a closer look at the images that make up our cover page. Everything from vintage business cards and newspaper clippings to old photographs and unforgettable moments. Together, these pieces of our archive tell the story of Gladys Manion Real Estate and the generations who helped build it. To see more memorabilia from throughout the years, feel free to swing by our office, where our history proudly lines our walls.
What began in 1936 as Gladys Manion’s rental agency helping soldiers find housing grew into one of St. Louis’ premier boutique real estate brokerages, built on relationships, expertise, and exceptional service.
Now, four generations later, we’re honored to celebrate this milestone and reflect on the legacy our clients, agents, and community have helped create over the last nine decades.
Thank you for being part of our story. Here’s to the next chapter!
