dbo:abstract Le district historique de Washington Avenue (en anglais : Washington Avenue Historic District) est un district historique situé autour de Washington Avenue dans le centre-ville ouest de Saint-Louis. Il est délimité par le Delmar Boulevard au nord, Locust Street au sud, 8th Street à l'est et 18th Street à l'ouest. Les bâtiments de la zone datent de la fin du XIXe siècle jusqu'au début des années 1920 et présentent une variété de styles architecturaux populaires de ces époques. Le district est inscrit au Registre national des lieux historiques (NRHP) depuis 1987. (fr) The Washington Avenue Historic District is located in Downtown West, St. Louis, Missouri along Washington Avenue, and bounded by Delmar Boulevard to the north, Locust Street to the south, 8th Street on the east, and 18th Street on the west. The buildings date from the late 19th century to the early 1920s. They exhibit a variety of popular architectural styles of those years, but most are revival styles or in the commercial style that would later come to be known as the Chicago School of architecture. Most are large multi-story buildings of brick and stone construction, built as warehouses for the St. Louis garment district. Many have terra cotta accents on their facades. After World War II, the decline in domestic garment production and the preference for single-story industrial space led to many of the buildings being vacant or underused due to functional obsolescence. The district includes: * Ely and Walker Dry Goods Company Building (1906–07), designed by Eames & Young, now a residential loft building. * Lesser-Goldman/Ferguson-McKinney Building (1901) at the northwest corner of Washington and W. 12th, also designed by Eames & Young. It is "A half-block in size and enriched with classical, round arches with voussoirs and keystones, quoins, and a copiously enriched cornice, the building was in keeping with the standards of architectural design of "the great commercial warehouses which are making Washington Avenue a monumental street." The building has piers defining 13 bays on its Washington Avenue facade and nine bays on its Tucker Boulevard facade. It has distinctive quoins. It has several large, round-arched openings with voussoirs. The main entrance, at center of the Washington Ave. facade, is surrounded with terra cotta work and set with a large scrolled keystone. Above, windows are in sets of twos or threes separated by brick mullions or pilaster-like piers. At the seventh story, "the piers curve to form round arches with keystones. Spandrels between the stories are ornamented with scrolled corbels." (en)
