In the 1860s, with bustling river traffic alive with boats and men,
St. Louis was a picturesque river town. This was the St. Louis that
Mark Twain, Edna Ferber, and T.S. Eliot wrote about: a town on the
mysterious but profitable Mississippi. After the Civil War, profits
from contracts with the Union and river trading brought increased
wealth to the community. Prosperous residents were challenged to
find land that could hold their prestigious mansions and gardens.
Their eyes turned to the western section of the town, which in time
became known as the Central West End.
