Comments

  • The Missouri wildlife folks have encouraged peregrine falcons to nest on the top reaches of the Civil Courts Building. When I worked at a near-by building it was awesome watching them ride the currents!
  • A remarkable building borrowing from multiple ancient styles with a "replica" of the Mausoleum of Maussollos at the top including a stair step pyramid roof.
