The Old St. Louis County Courthouse was built as a combination federal and state courthouse in St. Louis, Missouri. The Courthouses was Missouri's tallest habitable building from 1864 to 1894 and is now part of the Jefferson National Expansion Memorial and operated by the National Park Service.

Geez. I should take the time I usually spend watching the Cardinals screw up in Busch Stadium and go look at this place. It's gorgeous. I also like the St. Louis Bascilica.

Thanks Manglesphoto! I'll have to come back and export the courthouse sometime in the future. I see from the EXIF, this image was 35mm. What really helped was the Canon IS at 1/13sec hand-held.
