Lived in St Louis from 1987-1994. Union Station was THE place to go to spend an afternoon to meet friends, dine, shop and just hang out. We would usually walk down to the arch at some point. Miss those days!
It's so funny when people claim these buildings were already there because they couldn't believe that they were constructed in just 2 years while simultaneously believing that all of these massive structures could have been excavated (all without damaging them) within that time. And they call others brainwashed. 😂
All of these buildings were already here, built by the ancients. The world fair was a ploy to demo the entire site to cover up ancient technology. The proof is everywhere I look.

I grew up in St Louis and it was fun to see the black and white Chevrolet at 1:07 which looks exactly like my grandfather's car. He kept that car spotless and waxed at all times
One thing ive never understood is the monitors were closest to the fort and the lashed together wooden ships tobthe west. Also i understood the confederate fleey was due north of the fort thus east of the monitors. Yet somehow the tecumseh in trying to get at the tennesse somehow went west of the wooden ships to reach the minefield ???. Further what side of the monitor did the mine explode on? Lastly should not have the wooden ships been in the 200 yard wide channel east of the mines and obstructions?
Be it will contradict what they teach us and are children which is all blacks come from slavery and are from Africa came on slave ships when the truth is blacks have been running the world for centuries and the slaves they speak of are really black Royals turned prisoners of war the term white mean European black Royals it’s a social status it doesn’t mean skin color at least back then it didn’t until recent black Really meant pale back then so really the so called whites were the first slaves the wild men people from the caucuses caves don’t have a lineage of names and surnames the is why it had to be destroyed to keep the narrative when all we did as black is switch places because of the trickery of the devils system
Aahhh no overstated traffic, no su much pollution like later in the 70s and 80s start accumulate, The beaches real sanding and not corrupted by so much buildings with out planifications, And that lady was really cuteee and hot 😍🥰
@@TrueLoveNetwork Just proving that the "horse and buggy" line that you lot like to parrot is completely false, showing that most of you have an insignificant grasp on history. So, does this mean that you think that they were temporary buildings? Because they didn't use any of the above (except for maybe trains to bring in materials and autobuses to transport workers.)
I grew up in south St. Louis and loved the City and city life. The population of St. Louis in 1960 = 750,026 - Population in 2020 = 301,578. An example of poor policies, crime, and a poorly run school system. St. Louis could have been the railroad hub like Chicago; could have had Disney World; and so many other loss chances!
Some might say this footage is taken right around the city's prime... I'm a youngster but statistics and local anecdote all point to the same truth. I would say maybe a few years earlier before 1st through 3rd street was razed to nothing though, an alternate timeline where a lot of the city's history still remained would have been a better one. (Edit: not to mention if they hadn't demolished most of the buildings from the Worlds fair! I would have loved to have been able to explore forest park in that similar state today.) Especially now that America is finally just starting to come to its senses about getting rid of vehicle traffic in cities and making them more walkable, all those streets and businesses and just buildings in general would be priceless to us now. Its cool to have a symbol of some sort to identify your city, but I would much rather have culture to define us than a freaking mid-century vanity project.
