Our city’s extraordinary architecture reflects the vast wealth generated by St. Joseph’s manufacturing and wholesale trade. It was this prosperity and progressiveness that many skilled architects benefited from and thrived on. St. Joseph’s downtown buildings tell stories of the men and women who have shaped our community. Each structure not only tells a story about an episode in our city’s history, but also for our nation. So as you stroll through our downtown, look and listen intently. You, too, can take part in St. Joseph’s rich and lively past.
