It makes Earth sense |
3617 Grandel Square St. Louis, MO 63108 +1 314 577 0220 http://www.earthwayscenter.org/ earthways.center@mobot.org |
A prime example of 19th-century architecture, this historic landmark is housed in the Grand Center district and is now home to an environmental advocacy group. School participants are educated in recycling consciousness, energy efficiency, water conservation and other environmental concerns. The Victorian-style décor and design are enhanced by an elegant garden, cared for by the Missouri Botanical Garden. Built in 1885 and restored in 1993, the 4,500 square-foot, three-story building has become a must-see tour stop. Tours are by appointment only. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Hot Fun in the Summertime |
North Grand and Natural Bridge (5600 Clayton Avenue inside Forest Park [Parks Office]) St. Louis, MO 63110 +1 314 289 5330 http://stlouis.missouri.org/go... |
Dedicated in 1909, this landmark park's history actually dates back to 1855. Once home to an amphitheater, the park now holds a nine-acre fishing area; rest areas; a playground; softball, soccer and football fields; a pool; and a skating rink. Much has changed since the livestock and poultry showings of its early days. Today, the park is a favorite of locals and reserved to many visitors each year. Best of all, the park entrance showcases old bear pits from the 1800s, reminding everyone who enters of the rich history to be learned here. Review © 2007, Wcities |
