Who knew that an old friend from NYC was born and bred in St. Louis. Returning home for his great aunt’s 105th birthday, Rich gave this visitor a tour of his hometown, which included a stroll though the neighborhoods of Tennessee Williams and T.S. Elliot.
First stop: New Cathedral Basilica – apparently the largest single assembly of mosaics in the world.
Next: Soulard Market, the oldest farmer’s market west of the Mississippi, where I bought some local honey. Laclede’s Landing restored waterfront reminded me of Brooklyn’s DUMBO – hip restaurants in former warehouses and cobblestone streets.
