Built St. Louis
Historic Downtown
The Gill Building
222 N. 7th Street
Built: 1910
Architect: Louis Curtiss
Status: vacant since 2002
How this tiny building managed to survive is a mystery; the remainder of its block -- including three other similarly scaled
terra cotta buildings -- long ago succumbed to the wrecking ball. 222's future is uncertain; the May Company --
owners of Famous-Barr -- strong-armed the owner into vacating the building in 2002, as detailed in the Riverfront Times.
