Lindell Boulevard Mid-Century Modern Tour Tomorrow


Landmarks Association of St. Louis concludes Preservation Week with:

This was the Future: Mid-Century Modern Architecture on Lindell Boulevard

Sunday, May 17, 2009 -- 10:00 a.m.

Begin inside the Chase Park Plaza Cinema, 212 N. Kingshighway

Have a mid-century modern morning in May! A screening of a new version of the new short documentary San Luis: This Was the Future tells the story of the threatened San Luis Apartments. After the 10 minute film, Toby Weiss of beltstl.com and Michael Allen will lead a walking tour of the many mid-century treasurers along Lindell Boulevard, where modern design flourished between World War II and the 1970s. The walk will run from the Chase Park Plaza Hotel to Vandeventer and back, so be prepared for serious walking.

Just curious if this was a one off deal or if it will be repeated? I'll be back visiting in August and would love to take this tour as I'm considering moving back.
