If you would like more information, please contact us at [email protected]. The Addenda to the George McCue papers were donated by his daughter, Mary Patricia Holmes in November 2005 Mr. McCue was art and urban design critic of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch from 1956 until retirement in 1975, and after 1965 also was editor of the newspaper's Sunday Arts Page. He is an honorary member of the American Institute of Architects. He was graduated from the University of Missouri School of Journalism in 1933, and spent three years on the Linn County Budget-Gazette, a tri-weekly, at Brookfield, Missouri. He was next employed in the Jefferson City bureau of the Associated Press, and in 1937 joined the news staff of the Springfield (Mo.) Leader and Press. Election correspondence for the St. Louis Star-Times led to a job on that newspaper in 1942, and in 1943 he moved to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch as reporter and then writer and assistant editor of the old Sunday PICTURES photojournalism magazine. Mr. McCue was the author of three editions of a guide to St. Louis architecture, and other books on architecture and sculpture, as well as catalog essays and articles in professional journals. He served as juror in numerous art and architecture competitions, and received a special award from the National Trust for Historic Preservation for writings in the campaign to save the Old Post Office. He was active in the campaign to keep drawings by George Caleb Bingham in Missouri when it had been proposed to sell and break up the Mercantile Library collection. He was a speaker at national and regional conventions, and at universities in various parts of the country.

  • QUES in ARCH HIST I Jump to Today Questions in Architectural History 1
    [email protected] - QUES IN ARCH HIST I Jump to Today Questions in Architectural History 1 Faculty: Zeynep Çelik Alexander, Reinhold Martin, Mabel O. Wilson Teaching Fellows: Oskar Arnorsson, Benedict Clouette, Eva Schreiner Thurs 11am-1pm Fall 2016 This two-semester introductory course is organized around selected questions and problems that have, over the course of the past two centuries, helped to define architecture’s modernity. The course treats the history of architectural modernity as a contested, geographically and culturally uncertain category, for which periodization is both necessary and contingent. The fall semester begins with the apotheosis of the European Enlightenment and the early phases of the industrial revolution in the late eighteenth century. From there, it proceeds in a rough chronology through the “long” nineteenth century. Developments in Europe and North America are situated in relation to worldwide processes including trade, imperialism, nationalism, and industrialization. Sequentially, the course considers specific questions and problems that form around differences that are also connections, antitheses that are also interdependencies, and conflicts that are also alliances. The resulting tensions animated architectural discourse and practice throughout the period, and continue to shape our present. Each week, objects, ideas, and events will move in and out of the European and North American frame, with a strong emphasis on relational thinking and contextualization. This includes a historical, relational understanding of architecture itself. Although the Western tradition had recognized diverse building practices as “architecture” for some time, an understanding of architecture as an academic discipline and as a profession, which still prevails today, was only institutionalized in the European nineteenth century.

    Fallen Angel A Case Study in Architectural Ornamentation w. arthur mehrhoff According to the late anthropologist James Deetz, we can decode cultural meanings from the past most fully by studying “small things often overlooked and even forgotten.”1 While architectural historians often train their scholarly lenses on landmark buildings and structures, vernacular objects such as doorways, gravestones, and even discarded architectural orna- ments offer students of culture a kind of intellectual “mortar” that can help them fit larger structures to- gether into a conceptual whole.2 The Museum of Art and Archaeology’s winged terracotta figure, a splendid example of architectural ornament and a survivor of urban redevelopment, was one of a series of similar figures that originally graced the elaborate frieze of the 1898 twelve-story Title Guaranty Building, one of the earliest tall office buildings in downtown St. Louis. The building, known at its construction as the Lincoln Trust Building, was destroyed in 1983. The Fallen Angel The figure stands facing to the front with arms crossed at her waist (Fig. 1 and back cover).3 Constructed in three parts–base and lower part of a plinth, upper half of plinth, and upper body–she Fig. 1. Architectural winged figure in high relief, 1898, terra- cotta. H. 2.140 m. From the Title Guaranty Building (originally the Lincoln Trust Building), St. Louis, Missouri.

    ST. LOUIS COMMUNITY FOUNDATION 2015 CENTENNIAL REPORT 3 A TIMELESS COMMITMENT TO ST. LOUIS AS THE SECOND COMMUNITY FOUNDATION ESTABLISHED IN THE UNITED STATES, WE CONTINUE TO ADHERE TO THE VALUES THAT SHAPED US A CENTURY AGO. Today, the St. Louis Community Foundation continues to pursue the mission set forth a century ago and more: To facilitate philanthropic and community partnerships that inspire regional good. It acts as a steward of charitable funds which support the causes and organizations that reflect the variety of interests and passions of the generous St. Louisans who donated them – yesterday, today, and even tomorrow. The Foundation also serves as a community resource and provides a forum for nonprofits, funders, donors, and civic leaders to convene and address community opportunities and challenges. Through it all, as it has for 100 years, the St. Louis Community Foundation ensures that the charitable wishes and the legacies of its donors are adhered to and continue to benefit the St. Louis region – for years and decades to come. Take the story of Edward Bredell. Although he died in 1894, he continues to make contributions to St. Louis institutions, thanks to a fund he established in 1896, which is now under the charitable umbrella of the St. Louis Community Foundation. Leaving a legacy in your hometown that spans a century is not only generous … IT’S GIVING FOR GOOD. OUR ST. LOUIS COMMUNITY FOUNDATION MAKES THAT POSSIBLE. 4 1 FREDERICK H. GOFF The greatest use of TYPES OF FUNDS OPERA THEATRE OF ST. LOUIS I n 1914, Frederick H.

  • A Historical Bibliography of Commercial Architecture in the United States
    A HISTORICAL BIBLIOGRAPHY OF COMMERCIAL ARCHITECTURE IN THE UNITED STATES Compiled by Richard Longstreth, 2002; last revised 7 May 2019 I have focused on historical accounts giving substantive coverage of the commercial building types that traditionally distinguish city and town centers, outlying business districts, and roadside development. These types include financial institutions, hotels and motels, office buildings, restaurants, retail and wholesale facilities, and theaters. Buildings devoted primarily to manufacturing and other forms of production, transportation, and storage are not included. Citations of writings devoted to the work of an architect or firm and to the buildings of a community are limited to a few of the most important relative to this topic. For purposes of convenience, listings are divided into the following categories: Banks; Hotels-Motels; Office Buildings; Restaurants; Taverns, etc.; Retail and Wholesale Buildings; Roadside Buildings, Miscellaneous; Theaters; Architecture and Place; Urbanism; Architects; Materials-Technology; and Miscellaneous. Most accounts are scholarly in nature, but I have included some popular accounts that are particularly rich in the historical material presented. Any additions or corrections are welcome and will be included in updated editions of this bibliography. Please send them to me at [email protected].

  • S0486 Spreen, J
    S0486 Spreen, J. Orville (1897- ) Papers 1900-1982 524 Folders This collection is available at The State Historical Society of Missouri. If you would like more information, please contact us at [email protected]. BIOGRAPHY OF J. ORVILLE SPREEN J. Orville Spreen was born on August 19, 1897. He began working for the Wabash Railway in February 1912 at the age of 15. He started as an office boy in the joint offices of the General Superintendent of the Missouri District and General Attorney of the Burlington Railroad. He gradually worked his way up the ranks until he attained an executive position with the company. He retired in 1962 after 50 years of service to the Wabash Railroad. SCOPE AND CONTENT A great majority of the J. Orville Spreen collection consists of information compiled for use by the Junior Chamber of Commerce Historic Markers Committee. During the early 1940s the Committee was very active in St. Louis. Most, if not all, of the information they used to designate historic sites can be found here. Along with this information, the text revisions of each marker is included. In the process of designating sites, the Committee collected literature and information concerning St. Louis history and the history of various industries and businesses in St. Louis. Only a small portion of the collection concerns Spreen's personal and family life. The series entitled Spreen trips includes some information about vacations which Mr. and Mrs. Spreen took. This is, however, the extent of the information concerning Spreen personally. There simply is not that much information available.
