It was a two story brick building contained four apartments, no bathrooms. The rooms were arranged in a straight row with very high ceilings. It was located where Broadway goes under Hwy. 55. I'm writing an autobiography and wanted to include a picture of something similar to the place I spent my first seven years, 1945-52.

The classic brick style is very beautiful to see since a lot of modern buildings have already risen on other parts of the world and old designs are very minimal now.jamie stinthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08816538234948839198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7190846390008853053.post-85921414032754414872011-07-26T03:33:51.737-05:002011-07-26T03:33:51.737-05:00Dutchtown has always gone all the way up to Soular...Dutchtown has always gone all the way up to Soulard and Fox Park. These subtle designations came in the 70s and 90s. They were recognized neighborhoods, but Dutchtown was the whole German South Side from Soulard to Carondelet. That's where the name comes from. The sign is not wrong. You are mixing apples and oranges. Dutchtown is a neighborhood like Marine Villa, Benton Park etc, but it is also the whole area. In a few years, there will be a new designation for the Cherokee neighborhood (like there used to be) and the official neighborhood boundaries will change again. But the whole area will still be Dutchtown.Brian Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03902415314831468509noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7190846390008853053.post-60871135891959859502010-02-09T04:59:10.186-06:002010-02-09T04:59:10.186-06:00I interned with Dutchtown South Community Corp.

Their service area includes four neighborhoods: Gravois Park, Dutchtown, Marine Villa, and Mount Pleasant. You will see these signs in each neighborhood.Matt M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09279246676749137494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7190846390008853053.post-58358289087808426552010-02-08T21:00:01.341-06:002010-02-08T21:00:01.341-06:00Greater Dutchtown has a northern boundary of Chipp...Greater Dutchtown has a northern boundary of Chippewa east to Compton.

It says "you are in Dutchtown".Mark Grothhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15778135869139492251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7190846390008853053.post-36825619634402149412010-02-07T07:00:35.103-06:002010-02-07T07:00:35.103-06:00Ah I meant to mention, technically we are part of ...Ah I meant to mention, technically we are part of the dutchtown community. You can find more information via the Dutchtown South Community Corporation which supports and is comprised of the Dutchtown, Marine Villa, Mount Pleasant and Gravois Park neighborhoods.
