In an effort to make my company's web site something more than a 4 page electronic brochure I am writing about the various communities and neighborhoods in St. Louis. You wouldn't believe how entailed this has become!
If you would like to check it out, please feel free to do so at,
"St. Louis Communities and Neighborhoods". As always, any proofreading that you might care to do while there would be greatly appreciated!
Anyway, that is not what I wanted to ask about here today. Another project that I am doing for the web site is called, "
Stories From Mound City"
What I'm looking for is interesting stories about St. Louis and/or it's people. The first one that I wrote was about the "Great St. Louis Bank Robbery", which if you don't know the story was about a daring bank robbery that occurred at the Southwest Bank at the corner of Kingshighway and Southwest.
The bank robbery was interrupted by the St. Louis Police Department and a shoot out ensued. The story was later made into a movie starring Steve McQueen and that actually featured many of the bank employees and the St. Louis Police officers in the movie. Pretty cool stuff.
So, any good St. Louis stories? Let me know.
