Update: The Union Trust Building was renovated in 2018.
I know in the past I’ve complained that there aren’t more tall buildings in St. Louis, but when you’re standing at the base of the Union Trust, you realize that the buildings in St. Louis are tall enough. Humanely scaled and full of wonderful ornament.
You know – I really DID like your comment in the caption of "tall enough."While the only time I was in NYC was in 1952 as a 12-year old…our buildings are, as you describe, "humanly-scaled."
