There's the early years of University City. The oldest known building in U City is the Sutter-Meyer farmhouse. The oldest one in Clayton is the Hanley House. A nice summary of the city's history is available here. I also came across this source that links to many of the histories of the municipalities of St. Louis. Affiliated with that last source and focused more on photos is this site. I also remember seeing something where people would hold up old photographs of St. Louis and stand where the photos were taken, which made for a really astounding effect, but I can't find it. If you know what I'm talking about and know where it is, please let me know.
(This is my excuse for a blog entry when I'm "busy." I hope to have something more substantial coming soon.)
