SPECIAL REPORT: Saving Mullanphy

Filed Thursday, May 10, 2007 at 12:00 PM

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.
