St. Louis Place: Millionaires Row and More

Join us for a 2-3 hour walking tour of the historic St. Louis Place neighborhood. St. Louis Place is one of the oldest surviving wealthy neighborhoods in St. Louis. While the area is not typically seen as wealthy today, at one time, St. Louis Avenue was referred to as Millionaires Row. The park is the third oldest in St. Louis, and was laid out in 1850, with the mansions being built starting after the Civil War. Not only do we explore the history of the mansions, but also the working class residences in the southern part of the neighborhood. Along with a number of other buildings, St. Liborius Church and the Columbia Brewery will be featured on the tour. The tour will begin at St. Louis Place Park on St. Louis Avenue, and will cover a significant area within the neighborhood. Tickets are $20 per person. All ticket sales are non refundabl, but the tickets can be redeemed on any future tour, if a person is unable to attend.
