Built St. Louis
The Beauty of Modernism
DuBourg House
5890 Eichelberger - south City
Architect: Murphy & Mackey (high school)
Date: 1954 (high school)
This senior care facility contains a brick chapel wing in a similar vein to St. Peter in Kirkwood, with brick interior walls, a rounded apse and veritical windows with Modernst stained glass. The stained glass is far more muted in color, limited primarily to blacks and grays, with occasional yellows.
The building forms a complex with adjacent Bishop DuBourg High School, a massive International Sytle building which connects to it by a bridge wing.
