Today the warehouse is a tennis club and also hosts local family events
like wrestling matches and flea markets in the large space. Every time I
walk by the building, I can't help but think about the people who
worked here to bring prosperity to St. Charles in good times and to
fight a war in bad. How many women took breaks and walked home through
this alley during the war. Today these buildings are antique shops, a
music shop and homes and apartments for my neighbors, probably much like
they were back then.
You are really blessed to live in a historic little town by the river with many places in walking distance!! That is so awesome. Love the pants, they look so comfy. I was reading some of your older posts last night and couldn't believe it has been about 8 years I've been enjoying Va Voom Vintage!!
ReplyDeleteOnce again, I totally love this history-outfit combo post! And, as always, your outfit is adorable! What a rare color of jacket!
