The best part of this otherwise low-key Modernist reskin of the c. 1900 building at 913 Locust is this one-sided (and stopped) emerald clock. #stl #modernism #modernist #architecture #downtownstl #clock #stlouisgram

Even after an early Aughts addition and renovation, St. Peter’s in Kirkwood is c. 1951 Modernist goodness. Unfussy and elegant, it uses clean lines and subtle curves that allow light to play with the unselfconscious joy of a child. #stl #modernism #modernist #midcenturymodern #mcm #architecture #stlouisgram
City Club of St. Louis, later the Alverne Hotel (owned by the Archdiocese of St. Louis), now luxury apartments. The mosaic remains, but the rest of the Modernist ornamentation (all from the 1958 renovation that installed a Mid-Century chapel at street level) is no more. #stl #downtownstl #midcenturymodern #modernist #modernism #mosaic #latergram #architecture #stlouisgram
