Description:

In "St. Louis Lost", author Mary Bartley uncovers the architectural treasure of the city-and the stories of the people behind the walls-that have since vanished.

Read about the city's first "rehab" project, when Auguste Chouteau renovated a home built by Pierre LaClede, later torn down; the 1,155-acre Chouteau's Pond that covered part of what is now downtown St. Louis; the destruction of Indian burial mounds similar to those which exist now in Cahokia; Vandeventer Place, thought to be the grandest of the private streets ever built; a 1947 city of St. louis plan that still exists, calling for the destruction of "obsolescent" and "blighted" neighborhoods such as Lafayette Square, Soulard, and the Hill.
