Paul Sherman Brown - Just 2 states and 3 generations away

Over the holiday weekend I took a short trip to see one of the first mix use buildings in St. Louis.  This was built by my Great^3 uncle in the 1920's and is now downtown loft living for 222 lucky individuals.  Not bad for a poor country kid who used to sell tobacco door to door from a wagon.  I'm excited to learn more.
