16 Aug exterior images of herbert c. chivers’s five-story located in university city, mo.

recent images of herbert c. chivers five-story beaux-arts style octagonal-shaped woman’s magazine building (1903), located in university city, mo.
the building was converted into university city’s city hall in 1930.
the interior marble staircase and rotunda are really quite stunning (seen it many times on prior visits) but it was closed on the day we drove by.
