Railway Exchange Building (St. Louis)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Railway Exchange Building in St. Louis, Missouri is a large Chicago Style tower, at 22 floors, that is one of the most lavishly ornamented buildings in the entire city. Built as the Railway Exchange, the building served as the headquarters and the flagship store for Famous-Barr. In 2005 Famous-Barr's parent company May Department Stores was purchased by Federated Department Stores; the store was converted to a Macy's outlet in 2006. The building is connected to the St. Louis Centre mall, which was opened in 1984, and closed in 2006.
