Very informative Mr Jackson. Ive gone to mass in the church.I would have enjoyed some history on convent and school that was part of church.

[@organstl]

Yes lots of info- he does a great job. Thanks for watching and the comment- really appreciate it.

Is the Benton farmhouse mentioned at 51:00 missing a top floor? That square bit on the left front side looks weird. Thanks for taking me along on this trip. These buildings are beautiful.

[@organstl]

Thanks so much for watching and the comment. I think that is just the chimney that is on the side there. That's how they used to make them- on one of the sides.

The side building actually had a flounder roof originally, and sloped off the side of the main part of the house.

@@st.louishistoryandarchitec8067 That is cool. Thanks for the info! Very interesting.

Great video! You and Nathan make a good team! I need to find msyelf a Hyde Park lager shirt! Taking the bus to school in the 90s (Enright Middle, Visitation Park area), I could still see many Hyde Park ads on painted on bars' exterior walls, etc. Those ads must have been 50 years old at that point. I wonder if any have survived.

Thanks for watching and the nice comment. I saw a painting/mural/advertisement actually at the History Museum in the sports section next to a Falstaff one. I thought it was interesting.

The hours showing in the video I lived in 1913 Newhouse

[@organstl]

That's awesome. Thanks for watching. I hope you found it interesting.

[@Andrew-t1y1w]

@organstl Yes, I do like the video, but the house I lived in didn't have fireplaces in the house at all , 1913, Newhouse in North St. Louis in Hdye Park , my mom, and I moved out of there when I was 17.

[@organstl]

@@Andrew-t1y1w ok thanks for the info. I'll check with him to see what he meant.

A city destroyed by corporate greed and white flight. I lived there for 7 years. Every year it got worse. Just a hollow shell of a city now.
