1907: St. Louis was the 4th largest city in the United States. and host of the Worlds Fair.
1940
1950s. Most of the Waterfront is gone except lacedes landing. It took them a long time to figure out what they were going to do with the waterfront.
1964 building the arch.
1965
1990s
2008
Nothing really knew being built downtown right now except maybe 1 new condo, but it's not going to dramatically change the skyline at all. St. Louis is well overdo for another big skyscraper in my opinion. The arch has been holding up the skyline for too long now.
