For more than 80 years, the Baker Community Center has served the St. Charles community. Originally built in 1926 as a community center, the building was a gift from Mr. and Mrs. Edward J. Baker.
It now serves as the main administrative offices for the St. Charles Park District. The city's teen center, STC Underground, resides in the building's basement. It also features an auditorium. The building has undergone renovations over the years and, at one time, had a pool.
