Missouri Historical Society

The History Museum is still a great building, even if it has the awful addition out the back that obscures its back facade.Enclosed since at least the earl 1980's, the main hall is a great public space.

Antelope House, Saint Louis Zoo

The original Antelope House is still standing at the Saint Louis Zoo, but it's changed appearances over the years.When the Zoo renovated the whole eastern portion of the park, the building became encased in the distinctive concrete "red rocks" that now obscure the building.But it's clear when you're inside you've stepped back in time.
