Central West End
St. Louis, MO - maybetoday - Sunday, April 22nd, 2007 : goo
[previous] :: [next]
On Friday, I walked around the Central West End neighborhood of St. Louis. CWE borders the northeast side of Forest Park. Central West End didn't suffer to depopulation to the extent of the rest of the City. The neighborhood has a diversity of housing, including expensive high rises, affordable apartments, old large mansions on private streets, and modern lofts.
Spike, the resident cat of Left Bank Books, was sitting in the display case as I walked by.
The Eugene Field School designed by William Wittner (famous for his many schoolhouses) in 1901 is currently being rehabbed for lofts.
The Park Plaza has long been a prominent part of the CWE's skyline

St. Louis looks like a very nice city, much more intact than I would have expected.

Ragged Falls
This is Ragged Falls, up north in Algonquin Park.
The water was moving very fast, and because of the sunlight it often looked like amber ale.
At the bottom of the falls you can see a little boat of fishermen who are...
