The Civil Courts Building in St. Louis, completed in 1930, is a striking example of Art Deco…read morearchitecture inspired by one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World--the Mausoleum at Halicarnassus. It replaced the Old Courthouse as the city's main judicial center and remains a defining feature of the downtown skyline. Designed by the architectural firm Klipstein & Rathmann, the Civil Courts Building rises 386 feet across 13 floors. Its most distinctive feature is the stepped pyramid roof. The roof is made of cast aluminum and topped with two 12-foot sphinx-like sculptures bearing the fleur-de-lis of St. Louis on their chests. Out front, you'll find 32 Ionic columns, each carved from Indiana limestone and standing about 42 feet high. They give the place a solid, classical feel. Inside, the building houses courtrooms and a law library, and it has served as the home of the 22nd Judicial Circuit Court of Missouri. Its placement directly behind the Old Courthouse and in line with the Gateway Arch makes it a central visual anchor in downtown. It's basically a civic temple built from limestone and big ideas, where justice climbs thirteen stories into the sky. A monument to St. Louis's love of order and beauty, it's topped with aluminum sphinxes that quietly keep watch over the city below. The building is not open on the weekends but the grounds are open. There are a number of monuments worth checking out including the Freedom Suits and Police Memorials. [Review 1174 of 2025 - 440 in Missouri - 24727 overall]

If you have a sensitivity for mold or mildew, be sure to come prepared. If you're here for jury duty, be sure to be squeezed in with 200 people in the morning so you can get separated to go to several cases divided up so they can get jurors or pre-filtered jurors. Friendliness: They are overall friendly staff but can be a bit dramatic and there's always 1 that makes a scene. Obviously no one wants to be there. Entertainment: Feel free to bring a book or work laptop so you won't bend your neck like a dinosaur obsessing over your phone for hours. Parking: There is supposedly reimbursement for an area for jurors for parking. Call ahead and get guidance. Again the staff are very friendly and they are quick to answer. They will also have patience to listen. They are human. Don't make everyone's day worst if you're having a bad day.

Whoever is in charge need to have periodical training on customer service because they act like you are asking them to do something outside of their job scope. This is unbelievable from people who main purpose is to provide customer support! Appalling. UPDATE as of June 2024: I am extremely dissatisfied with the Judge handling of my case. As a father concerned about my children's safety, I filed a motion to have our parental agreement changed because my ex violated it multiple times. Most alarmingly, she failed to inform me that she was dating someone convicted of molesting his stepdaughter, who is under a protective order until the 2030s. This is the second sex offender she has brought around our minor children. In January 2024, I e-filed an "emergency" motion and received a court hearing date for April. My ex was served through the e-file system. I also submitted over 20 pages of evidence to substantiate my case. In April 2024, I appeared in court with my attorney, but my ex did not appear, despite being properly served. I received an order to appear "in person" for a hearing in June, even though I marked the documents as an emergency. In June 2024, I again appeared in court with my attorney, and once again, my ex did not appear, ignoring the court' for a second time. Had this been a male defendant, the repercussions would likely have been more severe. Instead of addressing the emergency, the Judge set a hearing for case management in August 2024. It is clear that Judge (I can't say her name due to ongoing litigation) did not read the evidence thoroughly, ignored significant safety concerns I had regarding a convicted sex offender around my children, and her demeanor walking in the court room was not hopeful; as if she didn't feel like hearing my case. The handling of this case has been deeply disappointing from the start and hopeless. I'm dropping this case due to the bias and prejudice of this court. I have absolutely no faith in this court or the Judge to make any reasonable judgement. If anything happens to my children, it's on the Judge and my ex-wife. No man should have to present a year long case just to get a judge to take time, review the evidence, and make a temporary decision based on the evidence in their face. Absolutely appalling.

In the early years of the city a parcel of land was put aside. Services were conducted in structures that would be temporary. From 1831 to 1834 the Greek style permanent limestone building was constructed. During the revival of the waterfront in the 1930s, this structure survived. It was a church and could not be torn down.

Post-Olympics, Kiener was a steel executive and lifelong athlete who bequested funds for a fountain with an athletic figure. The bronze statue was completed in 1965 and is 14 feet tall.

I was quite charmed by the house and especially the tour guide. On Bastille Day, the ticket price was a little higher than typical, at $12, but it included french dancing, storming the Bastille, plus the mock decapitation of Marie Antoinette and King Louis XVI. The House Tour was excellent, and interesting, not to mention historical and educational. It was well worth the money mostly due to the humorous delivery and knowledge of the tour guide. The restrooms are nice, and located in the new carriage house; street parking is easy to find and free. I missed the gift shop and world's fair collection but will be sure to catch that next time. Not sure this trip has enough kid-friendly activities to keep kids interested. This is certainly a worthy destination for those looking to deepen their french roots on Bastille Day. As a bonus, the food truck "Holy Crepe" shows up on Bastille Day too.
