The city of St. Louis has been at the crossroads of history since the days of the early pioneers. From the dawn of the Oregon Trail when our forefathers journeyed west, to the riverfront commerce along the Missouri River, St. Louis has been pivotal in Missouri and American legacy. Join fellow attendees for two different tours of the area. A return of the traditional Tilt-Up Convention and Expo Buildings Tour will take place on day 1 and an early morning walking tour where participants will learn the vibrant past of St. Louis’ Downtown will take place on day 3.

In 1972 the building was listed as a City Landmark, after it became a National Historic Landmark in 1958. It is currently owned by the State of Missouri and is used for state offices. Read more >
