Historic Map - St. Louis, MO - 1895
Description
St. Louis in 1895.
Reproduction panorama map of the city known as St. Louis, MO, drawn by Chas. Juehne in 1895. In the late 1890's automobiles began to appear on the streets of town. During the 1880's and 1890's several tall structures were built along the Broadway corridor, which had been the main artery running north-south through the business district of St. Louis. The relocation in 1880 of Barr's store to Sixth and Olive, and the move to the corner of Broadway and Locust of Scruggs-Vandervoort and Barney in 1888 were big indicators of the changing times. With the elevator's popularity, structures of ten or more stories began to go up. They called them skyscrapers. Steel frames were now used to construct such structures as the ten-story Wainwright Building at Seventh Street and Chestnut and the fifteen-story building at 705 Olive Street. In 1893 the New Planter's Hotel re-opened with a new building on the site of the Old Planter's House, which had served travelers since 1841. Washington Avenue began taking shape as a major wholesale district. The new Union Station opened in 1894.
The panorama image features lively scenes of railroad, riverboat, carriage and streetcar traffic.
