City Museum - St. Louis, Missouri
We know--traditional museums can be so stodgy. That's why we're
constantly revamping City Museum's museum-in-a-museum. Keep stopping
in to check out curator Bruce Gerrie's ever-expanding collection of
architectural relics and the new permanent exhibit, "Elmslie and
Sullivan", featuring original pieces by two of the most important
American architects.
