Fifty Years Ago Des Peres River Project and Canal Vision

A retrospective notes how River Des Peres shifted from a clear rural brook to a dumping ground. It recalls two tunnel designs for a long canal through Art Hill, the 1915 bond funding, a 50 year flood scare, and a revised plan adopted in 1916 costing about 1.1 million. The project, seen as a major sewer, included two tubes and vast excavation, illustrating scale and ambition behind St. Louis infrastructure. It also mentions Britain’s wheat consumption context.
