West Florissant has been declining for many years , a victim of white flight from the area . Two parallel roads in Ferguson are separated by several blocks , but the division runs deep . South Florissant Road has enjoyed a revival with more upscale shops and restaurants . North Florissant is mostly vacant except for some abandoned houses on either side of it.
