I’m not sure what building was being built, or torn down, but here are some interesting construction and architecture photos. They were taken along the riverfront in St. Louis and I scanned them from glass slides, which I believe to be from the 1920s because of the old cars. One is obviously of the Old Rock House Saloon & Restaurant, and there are photos of two plaques: The Nichols-Howard Building – Landmark of the Great Fire of 1849, and The Old Rock House.
