Jackson Square is viewed from the podium near the Mississippi River levee. This is one of the grandest plazas in the USA, due in part to the influence of the Spanish and French colonists who took turns ruling Louisiana as a colony --- until Napoleon sold it to the USA through the efforts of Thomas Jefferson in 1803. Napoleon needed the money to finance his European campaigns and Jefferson wanted the young nation to expand into the territories secured by his Louisiana Purchase. Here, in Jackson Square, the transfer of governments was carried out amidst much pomp and fanfare. It wasn't until 1814, when General Andrew Jackson saved the city (along with local help from the pirate Jean LaFitte) from the invading British that the square was named in his honour. Later, the equestrian statue of Jackson was made to adorn the centre of the plaza. Symmetrically, on either side of the French-styled St. Louis Cathedral are the Cabildo buildings, built to house the Spanish colonial government when Spain ruled the colony. They now form part of the Louisiana Museum complex. Again, symmetrically, on the sides of the plaza are the two Pontalba apartments, which even today are luxurious apartments for the rich and famous. The alleys between the Pontalba apartments are frequented today by artists, street performers and fortune-tellers, and in the space between the Cathedral and the Square one is certain to hear the wonderful sounds of Dixieland Jazz all year round. |

The St. Louis, MO skyline taken on the grounds of the Gateway Arch, or, the Jefferson National Expansion Memorial. In the center is the Old Courthouse, site of the 1856 Dred Scott case. The stitcher had a hard time making a coherent Arch, sadly. |

A massive expansion of St. Louis's City Museum, featuring more slides and the infamous overhanging bus that rankled the city so much in the 1990s. More found objects from all over the city are here; the camera is positioned on a dome from the old St. Louis Planetarium, the mantis is familiar to people who used to drive along I-44 in those days. http://www.citymuseum.org/ |
