Description
St. Louis Avenue in near north St. Louis was once called "Millionaire's Row", with large brick mansions lining the street are now in ruin like this sad home. A local investor purchased many homes in this neighborhood using tax money with the promise of rehabbing the neighborhood. Sadly, the houses were never rehabbed, the investor walked away with all the money as the NGA purchased the land and homes to be torn down for the latest new structure.

So sad!
Jane Linders replied:
Agreed. This building is now gone. St. Louis has a poor reputation for preserving historical old brick buildings. ~sigh~
