Par une nuit froide en Janvier 1904, lorsque la ville de St. Louis was preparing for the World’s Fair which would make it famous, overzealous co-workers killed seven boys and a man. Il était 5:45 p.m. on January 13th at the old Brown Shoe Company factory at the corner of Washington Avenue and North Eleventh Street. Time for the men to
Le sort de beaucoup de St. Louis’ bâtiments historiques prouvent le vieil adage de l'immobilier. C'est une question de lieu, emplacement, emplacement. Si le bâtiment est dans le Saint-Sud.
