Dutchtown

I ran into these houses when I was out and about one day in South St. Louis.The one below is my favorite; it looks like a French chateau in the middle of the neighborhood.

  1. I'm fairly certain the building in the bottom image is a former convent.

  2. The last image is on Iowa and Osage, right? Just north of Laclede Park. I have always loved that structure--beautiful! As always, thanks for the wonderful photos.

  3. What horribly ugly buildings. They should be demolished and replaced with strip malls.

  4. Yes, it is just north of Laclede Park, across from St. Thomas Aquinas. That would make a lot of sense that it was a convent once.
