What have you done to help the effort to preserve the Mullanphy Emigrant Home? The endangered near north side landmark -- follow the link to read a basic history -- suffered a wall collapse in April that prompted the successful effort of the Old North St. Louis Restoration Group to acquire the building.
Now, the Restoration Group is seeking funds for an estimated $100,000 stabilization project. With every day of inclement weather, than goal becomes more urgent.
Please send a tax-deductible contribution of any size ($5 isn't too small to help):
Old North St. Louis Restoration Group
2800 N. 14th Street
St. Louis, MO 63107
If you have questions, call the Restoration Group at 314-241-5031 or e-mail info@onsl.org. I can assure you that the Restoration Group is serious about stabilization and your money literally will go straight into bricks and mortar.
The eventual restoration of the Mullanphy Emigrant Home will do more than save one building. This project has the potential to initiate major investment in the southern end of Old North St. Louis and aid in development that will link our renewing downtown to Old North St. Louis.

"Now, it’s your turn. The building needs expensive emergency stabilization and repair work to keep it from collapsing this winter. And ONSLRG needs your financial assistance to help pay for that work.
I would greatly appreciate any help you can give this important project."
