SPECIAL REPORT: Saving Mullanphy
When Dr. Cole Woodcox of The Missouri Alliance for Historic Preservation announces the group’s annual list of “Most Endangered Historic Places” next week, he will do so in front of a building which is surely on the list — the Mullanphy Emigrant Home in Old North St. Louis.
Last week, PubDef Intern Reporter Dan Martin visited this endangered piece of St. Louis history and spoke with a representative from the group fighting to save it, as well as a woman who thinks they may just be wasting their time.
On Wednesday, May 16, supporters of the project to save Mullanphy will hold a benefit concert at Christ Church Cathedral at 7:00 p.m. Advance tickets are $20 each or buy them at the door for $25. Go to www.savemullanphy.org for more info.
